In HATS OFF!, Jonathan Roxmouth (Naledi and Fleur Du Cap winning star of BEAUTY AND THE BEAST, A HANDFUL OF KEYS, CATS and GREASE) and Louis Zurnamer (multi award - nominated maestro of HAIR, JESUS CHRIST SUPERSTAR, CHESS, BEAUTY AND THE BEAST and CATS) team up to revisit the madcap musical antics of famous British comedy duo, Michael Flanders and Donald Swann.
Sharing the stage with nothing but a baby grand piano (in tune, if you are lucky) and their off-beat senses of humour (out of tune, if you aren’t) they explore the many humorous and downright silly songs of Flanders & Swann including the classic “G-nu Song”, intoxicating “Madeira M’Dear” and infectious “Mud, Mud, Glorious Mud Ballad for Piano and Hippo”.
Described as an ingenious mix of Tom Lehrer, Gilbert and Sullivan and Monty Python, this is a comedy revue brimming with catchy tunes, tongue in cheek chemistry and laugh out loud humour. Suitable for anyone with a pulse.
