The Owl and the Pussycat and other Edward Lear "lyrics" set to music by Mike Hatchard. With a mini-documentary on Lear's life and times, a magic lantern slide show and chatty personal insights, the emphasis is on fun and entertainment. This show and its well-known star Mike Hatchard regularly get rave reviews. With musical styles ranging from jazz to contemporary pop ballad splashed with traditional folk, this show is popular with a wide range of audiences and age groups.

"How Pleasant to Know Mr. Lear" is ideal for intimate and medium-size venues. The show comes complete with equipment and p/a system and can be booked for theatres and halls which have no piano or sound system. If you are seeking a reasonably-priced show to book as a fund-raising event, you will find this one unusual, delightful and memorable. To complete your evening's entertainment and increase your box-office takings, why not also serve refreshments and a buffet to be enjoyed in the interval and/or after the show?

Linda Grace

With a background in dramatic art, stage musicals and classical music, Linda Grace is a promising newcomer to the Jazz scene. Her rich, warm voice and interpretation of Lear's words and Hatchard's music make her a natural partner for this concert. Linda also reads two of Lear's poems.
