Stuart Goldsmith
Whether cheering up a distressed child, helping prevent a riot, or genuinely saving another human's actual life, Stuart Goldsmith is excellent in a crisis. When the chips aren't down however, it's a very different story... Exhilarating stand-up about embracing anxiety, conquering indecision, and getting tasered. 'Intriguing and invigorating' (The Scotsman) 'Marries pitch-perfect audience repartee with cleverly woven tales of the everyday' (The Independent) 'A fine jokesmith' (Bruce Dessau, Evening Standard) 'Probably one of the most likeable acts on the circuit' (Metro) 'A pitch-perfect performance, every nuance carefully calculated for maximum impact… a set rich with wordplay' (Chortle).
