Review: Stephen K Amos -- Welcome To My World, Leedes

While it's common for comics to test new jokes on tour audiences, his reading of the skits directly from notes he'd brought with him just seemed a bit slapdash. The delivery was affected and it was a break from his confident, riffing style. But overall, Welcome To My World was a funny, surprising show.

Review: Stewart Lee @ The Lowry Theatre, Salford

Despite the appearance of a rambling, emotive tirade, it is the precision planning and comedic craft that is the key to his success. It is precisely this that allows him to bring the intimacy of small comedy club to an auditorium the size of the Lowry's main theatre. It is a trick he has already pulled off on the small screen.

Review - Stewart Lee: A Room With A Stew - Salford

Lee's comedy is all about context. He works within a framework of self constructed hypocrisy that has allowed him to create his own genre of stand-up comedy. His art of deconstruction is sublime.

Review: Stewart Lee

It's familiar turf for anyone who has seen him before, and despite the repetitiveness of his reprimands and diatribes he plays the frustrated middle-aged intellectual to perfection as well as belly laughs from a fiercely partisan crowd.
