Scott Bennett: Stuff
The Spiel
As heard on BBC Radio 4! As a society we love stuff, it’s a statement about who we are and who we want to be. But apparently, this message is at odds with the looming environmental crisis. We’re now struggling to balance these worlds, to focus on the things that bring us real connections and nourish the soul. Tour support for Mickey Flanagan, Rob Brydon Jason Manford, and John Bishop. The star of Live at the Apollo, The News Quiz, The Now Show, The Ultimate Choice and Chortle Best Club Comedian Nominee 2022. “Without doubt live comedy’s best kept secret” Evening Standard “Great material, great delivery, a very funny man” Rob Brydon “Brilliantly funny, a joy to watch” Chris Ramsey “Bennett is a stand-up in fine control of his material, his delivery and his image, a masterclass in adding a frisson of ‘in the moment’ unpredictability to otherwise tightly written routines” **** Chortle
