MICKY FLANAGAN | Edinburgh Comedy Award nominee and Live at The Apollo star
"Micky’s take on his working-class East End background is side-splitting..." THE SUNDAY TIMES
Micky draws on his East End background as he ruthlessly deconstructs the Cockney Myth with razor sharp observational wit. He tells a comic tale of a working class upbringing, where alphabetti spaghetti is a luxury. Micky has come a long way since then, thanks to a university education he is now a rare delight – an intellectual cockney.
Micky Flanagan had his own half hour special for the Paramount Comedy Channel aired autumn 08 and a Radio 4 half hour special, What Chance Change? aired January 09.
"Astonishingly good – a cockney extraordinaire and cracking stand- up." TIME OUT
He has recently shot to fame after brilliant appearances on Michael McIntyre's Comedy Roadshow and ITV's Comedy Rocks, as well as being seen on Mock The Week.
"Micky is the very embodiment of the cheeky, chirpy Cockney, and his chatty, effervescent delivery engages the most reticent of rooms. The infectious energy is also heightened by his exaggerated, almost camp, reactions. It all makes for a rambunctious set that's sometimes rude, sometimes thoughtful, but rarely short of hilarious."
