THE COMEDIAN COLLECTION Stewart Lee - Basic Lee (Live At The Lowry) [PRE-ORDER]

Note: this product ships in time for the release date 4th September.

Stewart Lee’s acclaimed post-pandemic stripped-back show BASIC LEE gets its first DVD release in a limited-edition format devised in collaboration with the cult folkloric rambling zine WEIRD WALK.

This two-disc limited edition brings together the complete filmed live performance (recorded at The Lowry in Salford) with a newly written 20-page essay and liner notes by Stewart Lee. The second disc, Basic Leads, is an 80-minute audio archive of work-in-progress, abandoned routines, early versions of key sections, political material lost to time and one-off exchanges that existed only in the room. 

The deluxe double-disc edition, complete with 80minutes of never-before-published audio extras, is the inaugural release of The Comedian Collection, a 13-release archival publishing series of deluxe double-disc hardback book-style packages, forming a complete library of Stewart’s live shows AND COMEDY VEHICLE TELEVISION SERIES, plus work-in-progress material. Designed and art-directed by WEIRD WALK, The Comedian Collection will be an exclusive, cohesive assemblage of the finished shows, the hidden workings, and the material left behind: archived.  

BASIC LEE Live at the Lowry was originally recorded for Sky by Drum and Awkward Films and is a Sky Original.
