Summary
| Description | Michael Flanders was a writer and performer of comic songs, as well as an actor, broadcaster and disability campaigner. With pianist Donald Swann, his live theatre show At The Drop of A Hat was a huge international hit with songs such as The Hippopotamus Song, The Gnu Song and A Transport of Delight. Michael lived with his family in Bedford Park W4 till his death in 1975, and the Michael Flanders Centre in Acton was opened in his honour. On 14 September 2022 Ealing Civic Society unveiled a green plaque in his honour. That evening at the ActOne Cinema & Cafe, as part of the Chiswick Book Festival Michael Flanders' daughters, journalists Stephanie Flanders and Laura Flanders, discussed his impact on comedy and the world of disability with Comedy Chronicles writer Graham McCann, chaired by Festival director Torin Douglas. Picture (l-r) are: Torin Douglas, Graham McCann, and Michael Flanders’ daughters Laura and Stephanie. | |||
