KIT AND THE WIDOW
'20 Years Man & Boy'
To celebrate twenty years on the Road, Kit and the Widow present an
anniversary selection of songs. Something old, something new, something
borrowed ........ and something in the second half, if we're all still
sober! In the fine old English tradition of two men and a piano, they have
many a tale to tell. From Joan Rivers in the bush to scout huts in Sark,
from ice polo in St Moritz to nudist beaches on the Costa del Sol, from the
gilded drawing rooms of society to the murky charms of the Edinburgh
Festival fringe year after year after year .............
Tickets £14(£12 FOSJ), £12(£11 FOSJ), £6 restricted view
