Went out to see Stewart Lee doing his "Man Wulf" show at the Royal Festival hall.
Huge place. Ginormous! Easily the biggest place I've ever seen him perform.
He mocks the 60 million dollar netflix special offensive comedians doing their skits about how they're not allowed to say stuff, while actually saying the stuff they say you're not allowed to say and suffering nothing but millions of dollars for it.
There are things you're *actually* not allowed to say this month of course. But they will not say the things that can get you 14 years in jail: like pointing out the government's collaboration in a genocide and supporting those who oppose it.
The man wulf just mocks the weak instead.
And Stew does too, while by mocking the wolf inside him showing he could be them. Sort of. Only he can't, because even though it's enjoyable and funny and easy to deconstruct, it's still fundamentally inane.
Stew's voice and accents and singing and impersonations have improved considerably!
Great costume. See the show if you can.
