MovieComedy
Stuart Laws ('You'll struggle to find a comedian with a better jokes per minute rate... like a one-man episode of Arrested Development' Fest) acclaimed Edinburgh Fringe and tour show Stuart Laws is All In. The show sees Stuart reflect on the day his life changed forever: when he risked everything in a Las Vegas poker tournament. Is he a winner or a loser? Can he burn the candle at both ends? And has he been infected by the Willennium Bug? A show about making difficult decisions, choosing different paths and gettin' jiggy wit' it from the leftfield observationalist and intricate gag-weaver. “A deliriously fun and nonsensical hour full of tiny little treats, Stuart Laws Is All In defiantly stands proud as a show not to be taken seriously in any way, shape or form.” ★★★★ The List
