Superficially an uncharacteristically simple Stewart Lee show, in which the gnomic fifty-six-year-old veteran attempts to define by example what stand-up comedy is, Basic Lee slowly reveals a subtext about staying sane by re-structuring reality. But Lee's most personal show is also his funniest, as he rewards the post-pandemic audience with a barrel load of big laughs as well as a bucketful of post-modern comedy deconstruction.
