Stewart Lee: Snowflake / Tornado
Back by popular demand after a sell out performance earlier this year don’t miss this double-bill of two 60 minute sets, back to back from “the world’s greatest living stand-up” (The Times).
Tornado questions Stew’s position in the comedy marketplace after Netflix mistakenly lists his show as “reports of sharks falling from the skies are on the rise again. Nobody on the Eastern Seaboard is safe.”
Snowflake questions Stew’s worth in a society demolishing the liberal values he has been keen to espouse in a fairy-tale landscape of winter wonder.
