Four actors, stools, a piano and a healthy dose of attitude are all you
need to enter the witty, wicked, offbeat and thoroughly twisted world
of famed satirical songwriter a href="http://mtishows.com/biography.asp?writerid=3491"Tom Lehrer/a. brbrIn
concerts, television appearances and a series of now-classic
recordings, the Harvard-educated math professor delighted millions of
fans during the 1950's and 60's with his dry, cynical but good-humored
attacks on the A-bomb, racism, pollution, p*rnography, the military,
the boy scouts and, of course, mathematics. brbrNothing is sacred
in this hysterical revue featuring such Lehrer favorites as ?Poisoning
Pigeons In The Park,? ?When You Are Old And Grey,? ?The Masochism
Tango,? ?The Old Dope Peddler,? ?The Vatican Rag? and an unforgettable
Gilbert and Sullivan-esque recitation of the table of elements, linked
together with his own inimitable concert patter. brbrRediscover the man and songs that have delighted and skewered the world for over forty years in strongTOMFOOLERY/strong!
