VIDEO: Watch WAITRESS Star David Hunter Perform A Song Written By His Son!

On Friday, 31 January, David Hunter, most recently seen playing Dr Pomatter in Waitress, played an intimate solo concert at The Other Palace Studio, London.

As part of his set, Hunter introduced the musical stylings of Rufus, his three-and-a-half-year-old son, and debuted his song "The Bear's House" in front of a live audience.

On his son's songwriting skills, Hunter told BroadwayWorld: "I've been singing silly songs at Rufus since the day he was born and, as a result, he's started singing his every thought! He's always writing songs, but my absolute favourite is 'The Bear's House' and I've started playing it at gigs. It's bonkers and brilliant, just like him. He made up the whole thing - I just added some chords underneath it."

When asked for his comment, Rufus asked, "Where are my royalties?".
