Micky Flanagan

Event information

Tak’ the High Road….. – Micky Flanagan plus support from Kevin Shepherd

Micky’s last show here was snowed off in February so he’s back, as promised, with brand new work in preparation for another successful outing to the Edinburgh Fringe in August
As a self-confessed East End Herbert who went away and got himself an education, Flanagan now bestrides two classes, feeling unwelcome in both. What a fine position for a comedian to occupy.
Thus he's equally uncomfortable at dinner parties as he is with the graffiti in a building site toilet (it's just so poorly punctuated), and he is comedically well-equipped to express why.
"Astonishingly good – a cockney extraordinaire and cracking stand- up." Time Out
Once he had conquered his initial fears Kevin Shepherd has quickly become a regular at many clubs. He also got through to The Laughing Horse new act of the Year Final 2002 and came second in the Krater New act of the Year 2002 at the Komedia in Brighton. In 2006 he did his first and very well received Edinburgh show “Comics Die in Hot Cars”.
