CLIMATE
My new climate crisis comedy show "Spoilers" won BEST SHOW 2023 at the Leicester Comedy Festival, was one of the best-reviewed shows at the Edinburgh Fringe, and opens at Soho Theatre in November.
(Seen that show? Here's the reading list!)
It's a frank and funny look at how we can all do more to alleviate our own dread and combat inertia in the face of the greatest challenge humanity has ever faced.
I also have a 30min version created for corporate sustainability departments that can recharge your climate comms!
SPEAKING
"Stu was absolutely brilliant and brought a fantastically upbeat (and much needed) energy to our firm’s Friday afternoon call. His perspectives on building resilience were really thoughtful and relevant for us all. I would highly recommend this session as an alternative and fresh take on cultivating resilience”

Like an executive, a comedian is simultaneously the most powerful and the most vulnerable person in the room, and I should know! As well as my own experience I also host the “Comedian's Comedian” podcast ("absolutely riveting" – Guardian), in which I interview comedy greats from Jimmy Carr to Kathy Griffin about the habits and processes that help them to create - and cope.
I love sharing everything I’ve learnt about cultivating resilience, authenticity, and problem-solving under pressure!
