Stewart Lee, possibly our country’s most curmudgeonly comedian, will be bringing his prickly brand of comedy to Cambridge this month as part of his Content Provider tour.
As those who’ve seen him live will know, his stand-up shtick flips the usual dynamic of watching comedy on its head – the whole making people laugh who’ve paid money to see you thing – essentially consisting of a scornful stream of invective, often aimed at the audience itself.
That said, he’s bloody funny with it – leading you off on expertly crafted tangents on politics, the media, and, mostly, his contempt for himself and the rest of the world. Catch him doing his thing on 23 March at the Corn Exchange, tickets are £25.75.
