As the lead singer of Modern Romance he toured the world, as the screenwriter of
Kinky Boots
he conquered Hollywood, now comes Geoff Deane’s latest act as a brilliant and witty raconteur in this hilarious memoir.
Geoff Deane has worked as a fly-pitcher selling out of a suitcase, and flogged suits on Brick Lane market in London’s East End. He was the singer in a much-loved culty punk band the Leyton Buzzards, a floppy-haired pop star in Modern Romance, a songwriter, and record producer.
He wrote a gay anthem for John Waters drag queen muse Divine, worked as journalist and restaurant critic for style magazines
The Face
and
Arena
, before becoming a successful writer and producer of TV comedy. And then he wrote a couple of films, one of which,
, became a Tony Award winning Broadway stage show.
With a cast ranging from local oddballs to international celebrities, Geoff Deane’s unique take on the world is only matched by his extraordinarily rich use of language, with a smattering of Cockney rhyming slang, Yiddish and Polari. A glossary is provided.
