Don’t let that cherubic baby face fool you- Michael McIntyre
is a comedian in a class of his own, oozing style and substance. With a
raft of original material, Michael is the pioneer of the new wave of
immaculately crafted observational stand-up.
Direct from sell-out runs at the Edinburgh Fringe and London’s West
End and star-making turns on BBC’s Live At The Apollo, Have I Got
News For You and Mock The Week, the 31 year old topped off
his most prolific year yet by holding his own against some genuine
showbiz legends at The Royal Variety Performance and starring in
his very own televised Comedy Store Special on the Paramount Comedy
Channel.
In a world of wayward surrealists and fierce satirists, Michael
McIntyre is not afraid to turn his considerable skills to the honing
and polishing of proper, belly-laugh gags. This is pure comedy, mining
the hilarity of the everyday, the rich seam of humour nestling in the
humdrum.
Michael breathes life into material based on shared experiences,
elevating ‘have you ever noticed…’ comedy to new, hack-free heights. His
warm, all-inclusive style means that we guarantee you’ll get to know
that bloke sat next to you and that grin on your face will be there till
morning.
Smooth, sharp and awash with confidence, he’s the comedian you could
take home to your mother.
Michael is teetering on the edge of being very big indeed. Catch the
man The Scotsman dubbed ‘Adam Hills with Jimmy Carr
vowels, Phil Nichol energy and the face of a Hollywood child
star’ before he goes stratospheric.
