Killingly funny, and totally life-affirming. - The Herald, UK
A song-and-dance cabaret act with a twist – all the performers are dead!!
Three dancers join two musicians on stage as a five-piece music hall troupe,
dead, desperately downtrodden and travelling on a seemingly never-ending
purgatorial tour.
Black comedy, clever yet gruesome lyrics, original live
music and slick choreography combine to make an hour-long show of laughter and, possibly,
tears. Described by the press as "richly entertaining" and "a spine tingling
combination of deadly dance and dark ukulele-based songs", this show has
something for everyone, whether you like dance, music or comedy!
The Cholmondeleys (pronounced "Chumlees") and the Featherstonehaughs (pronounced "Fanshaws")
are led by Artistic Director Lea Anderson, with live music written and performed by composer
Steve Blake and ukelele bashing minstrel Nigel Burch of The Flea Pit Orchestra. The show toured
UK in 2008 (Glastonbury Festival, Latitude Festival and Edinburgh Fringe), garnering great
reviews and audience responses.
