Stewart Lee: Carpet Remnant World

Date & Time

Wed 21 Mar 2012 – 20:00

Where

The Rake

Sold Out - returns only, please contact the Box Office on 01524 598500

What can a sexless middle aged married man, whose life now consists mainly of watching Scooby Doo cartoons with a four year old boy, possibly find to write comedy about?
Formerly stand-up’s youthful iconoclast, Lee now gawps blankly at News 24 as Britain burns down around him, and blinks weirdly at the vast wayside retail outlets during endless journeys to and from increasingly indistinct provincial theatres. Once he lived on the pleasure planet. Now he is trapped in Carpet Remnant World.  And so are you.
"Fascinating, funny stuff" The Times ****
"About as funny as bubonic plague"  The Sun

Age Guidance 16+
