Details
Tales about a Frenchman with some unusual [but clean] habits, which include burying his dog’s kennel and his own luggage pieces.
The stories appear alongside other new works, which include an address to aliens on the subject of transport a poem about a non-talking parrot and some animal impersonations with the aid of a handkerchief.
Suitable for most people over seven.
The audience are invited to sing along. But not to dance. Much.
Hegley is known as a poet and singer with a common and comedic touch, hence the quotation from The Observer, 'Awesomely mundane'; The poet Adrian Mitchell said of him: 'Just because he is one of the funniest men alive, do not
underestimate his dedicated gentleness.' And The Luton News said that his lyrics, '...quite often make little sense'
"Typically brilliant songs and stories about a Gallic small-town hero with a dog called Chirac" The Guardian
