The Source Below, 11 Lower John Street, Soho, W1F 9TY

Comedy: , Stand Up

How Much: Free!
Contentious New York comic Lewis Schaffer is being held hostage in Britain, performing free shows at the Source Below on Tuesdays and Wednesdays.

Watch him go from unlovable loser to alpha male winner as he battles the demons that have kept him down - including phone-smashing yobs in an Edinburgh bar.
 
Biting social and political satire with self-destruction and self-regeneration.

Shows are free, with a voluntary collection taken at the end.
