About Stewart Lee

  • In the mid-1990s he was one half of the radio duo Lee and Herring, alongside Richard Herring.
  • His stand-up is characterised by repetition, frequent callbacks, generally deadpan delivery and a pronounced use of deconstruction, which he often self-consciously refers to on stage.After a return to the live circuit, and through BBC and Channel 4 specials and series, Lee has rebuilt an audience and a reputation as an anti-populist comedian.
  • In December 2011 he won British Comedy Awards for best male television comic and best comedy entertainment programme for his series Stewart Lee's Comedy Vehicle.
  • A 2009 article in The Times referred to him as "the comedian's comedian, and for good reason" and named him "face of the decade".
  • In June 2012 Lee was placed at number 9 in the Top 100 Most Influential People in UK Comedy.He co-wrote and co-directed the West End hit musical Jerry Springer: The Opera, a critical success that sparked a backlash from Christian groups who staged a series of protests outside its early stagings.
  • Lee has written music reviews for publications including The Sunday Times.
