Stewart FrancisStewart Francis

Stewart moved to England from his native Canada two years ago and is best known for storming Michael McIntyre’s Comedy Roadshow (BBC1) and as a regular face on BBC2’s Mock The Week and Channel 4’s 8 Out of 10 Cats. He is also currently supporting Ricky Gervais on his Science tour.

"One of very few stand-ups whose perfectly-crafted gags bear proper comparison with transatlantic greats like Steven Wright and Woody Allen". The Guardian

An accomplished actor, writer and comedian, Stewart has performed his slick, perfectly timed wealth of gags all over the world from the US to Kilkenny and Aspen to South Africa.

‘Few hours pack in so many gags with such a high hit rate.’ - Chortle

‘Consistently brilliant one-liners... 80 minutes of mind-blowing stand-up comedy.’ The Scotsman *****
