A professional stand-up since 1997, Micky Flanagan 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 and a bottle of black tower the height of sophistication. Micky's unique brand of intelligent humour appeals to men and women equally, as he bemoans the lot of modern man in pursuit of the perfect idle day, and celebrates being turned away from a night club because his feet are killing him. Spiel sees Micky doing what he does best, storytelling. Drawing on his colourful life growing up in the gritty East End and his now avowedly middle class existence in a leafy London suburb he morphs somewhere in the middle so you can never be quite sure what his take on things might be, but always with hilarious results.
