It's come to this.
Guest-starring in the production is Yee Jee Tso, who, ironically, appeared as Chang Lee in the Doctor Who TV movie. The show was recorded at Moat Studios, where free jazz types Derek Bailey, Ruins, Acid Mothers Temple etc have also recorded. Dr Who does not contain improvisatory elements.

Vortex Comedy Night - Union Chapel, Compton Avenue, London, N1 2XD

"Having met a property developer who wanted to buy Stoke Newington's famous Vortex jazz club, and disliked him intensely, Stewart Lee blackmailed a once in a lifetime line up of talent spanning three decades of comedy into appearing at the Comedy For The Vortex benefit, April 24th, Union Chapel, Islington. Profits will go the Vortex Jazz Foundation, which aims to keep this vital venue open and extend its activities to include community music resources and a jazz archive."

loss.
