About Stuart Thomas
Stuart Thomas: Bad Fatty is a sharp, unapologetic stand-up show exploring life as a fat Welshman. Growing up on a sheep farm, Stuart Thomas fuses working-class roots with a modern take on body positivity, turning diet culture on its head and calling out society's absurd expectations. He explores sexuality, body image and depression with humour and defiance, proudly embracing his bisexuality. Running 45 minutes and free to attend, this solo show at the Nineties venue is recommended for audiences aged 18 and over.
Why see this show?
Honest, warm and politically sharp — Stuart Thomas takes personal experience and turns it into comedy that genuinely challenges how we think about bodies and identity. Free entry makes it an easy recommendation.
