Camping trip

What could be more cheering-up in drab November than a sparkly evening of music and comedy at Leamington's premier venue the Royal Spa Centre?

Mr Gnome was charmed by the, er, boys' eclectic mix of stylish cabaret numbers, saucy patter and cheeky bonhomie.

And, gosh, they can sing. To be honest, their vocal talents almost exceed their abilities as purveyors of comic campery.

Funny and fabulous, 4 Poofs and a Piano deserve far bigger audiences than the small but enthusiastic crowd that welcomed them to Leamington.

With the possible exception of their mildly outrageous closing number, the chaps' brand of humour falls happily into the honourable British tradition of 'naughty, but nice'.

The tour continues into 2009. Check them out!
