Left Handed Productions present a hilarious musical celebration of two of the greatest satirical songwriters of the 20th century — Allan Sherman and Tom Lehrer.
Packed with razor-sharp wit, clever lyrics and unforgettable melodies, this entertaining revue explores the lives and songs of the men who turned comedy into an art form and influenced generations of musical comedians.
Alongside the music, our cast perform an original script that weaves the songs together, telling the story of Sherman and Lehrer’s lives, humour and cultural impact — making this much more than simply a concert of their songs.
Featuring classic songs including:
• Hello Muddah, Hello Fadduh
• The Masochism Tango
• The Vatican Rag
• Mexican Hat Dance
…and many more brilliantly funny songs from two true Kings of Satire.
Expect an afternoon of laughter, nostalgia and wonderfully irreverent humour as we celebrate the music and legacy of these iconic performers.
