“Mixing comedy and tragedy is a risky business - the one can be made to seem cold, the other ridiculous. (Hatstand Opera) achieved the rare feat of both moving their audience emotionally and having them roar with laughter, often within the space of a few minutes.” Chairman, Dolgellau Music Club

A songbook of life’s little essentials, from finding (and losing, and simply mislaying) the love of your life, to winning over the mother of all mothers-in-law... A slick and witty show with more tales than a Manx cat, and where the jokes come faster than a TT rider (almost).
