Michael toured his acclaimed solo stage production of Vivian Stanshall’s Sir Henry at Rawlinson End nationally from 2009 to 2018. The production was revived for a special performance at Union Chapel, London in 2023, marking what would have been Stanshall’s 80th birthday.

Sir Henry at Rawlinson End
The Bonzo Dog Doo-Dah Band
Following the London premiere of Sir Henry at Rawlinson End in 2011, Neil Innes - attending alongside Adrian Edmondson - invited Michael to collaborate. This ultimately led to Neil asking him to sing with the Bonzo Dog Doo-Dah Band on their final tour (2015–16).
Half the Man
In 2019 Michael premiered Half the Man at the Edinburgh Fringe - a one-man show about fear and fry-ups. The show received national media coverage for its humour, honesty and emotional impact, with a national tour planned before the Covid pandemic halted live performance.
