Horse Brother - Sydney Fringe Festival
It's not every day you meet someone who has a brother for a horse. Not, like, as a metaphor. A literal horse. But what does this have to do with why I could never get married? Or why patience is a virtue that I've never had? And by God, who cares if I'm a baritone?
Leo Amadeus is an actor, writer and musician who will take many secrets to the grave. Having performed the show in Canberra and Sydney, he is taking to the Sydney Fringe Festival in an elaborate ruse to secretly acquire some peanuts. In this collection of comedy songs, you will be let into his world of fornicating mice in his roof, his hatred of his genetic voice box and the hijinks he gets up to when left to his own devices.
