Stewart Lee is probably one of the first alternative comedians that burst onto the scene in the late eighties, as he says himself he has been doing stand-up for seventeen years, but despite forays into the world of journalism and his somewhat publicised involvement with the controversial Jerry Springer The Opera.
While these have obviously influenced Mr Lee, it certainly has not adversely affected the man’s undoubted talent and charisma as a comedian. Playing to a capacity audience, a lot of whom could have only been a nursery school, is laid back style entertained throughout on a variety of subjects and had the audience glued to his every word.
If last night was anything to go by Stewart Lee maybe a 90’s comedian, but he could till be attracting an audience when he himself is in his nineties.
