An Evening With The Humour of Bob Newhart And Tom Lehrer

An Evening With The Humour of Bob Newhart And Tom Lehrer

Peter Gill and Andy Meller perform some of the best sketches and songs from the catalogue of two of America’s greatest satirists of the 50s and 60s. ‘The Driving Instructor’, ‘Introducing Tobacco to Civilisation’ and ‘USS Codfish’ from Bob Newhart’s back catalogue and ‘The Masochism Tango’, ‘National Brotherhood Week’ and ‘Poisoning Pigeons in the Park’ from Tom Lehrer’s are just some of the classics that will have you rolling about in laughter.

Peter Gill and Andrew Meller present two fabulous, 90 minute shows dedicated to the satirical humour of American comic legends Bob Newhart and Tom Lehrer’.

Such has been the success of their first show An Evening with the humour of Bob Newhart & Tom Lehrer where audiences get to hear such gems as Newhart’s ‘Driving Instructor’, ‘Introducing Tobacco to Civilisation’ and ‘USS Codfish’; and Lehrer’s sharp witted songs ‘Poisoning Pigeons in the Park’, ‘I Got it from Agnes’ and ‘The Masochism Tango’, that we are now also delighted to offer Another Evening with the humour of Bob Newhart & Tom Lehrer.

In this follow up show audiences can expect to enjoy Bob Newhart’s ‘The Nudist Camp Expose’, ‘The Daddy of All Hangovers’ and ‘Superman and the Dry Cleaners'; and Tom Lehrer’s ‘Pollution’, ‘Smut’ and ‘Oedipus Rex’ - classics that relive a golden age of comedy.

These are wonderfully entertaining and light-hearted evenings of wit suitable for all of those with at least a modicum of a sense of humour.
