John Hegley: Do Horses Have Teeth, Sir?

SPOKEN WORD
Thurs, May 15, 2025 (8pm start)
The Continental, Preston
Tickets £15 from Skiddle

The legendary John Hegley returns to Preston following his sell-out 2024 show.

John Hegley, the star of radio, TV and school assemblies, returns with a celebratory jamboree chock-full of daft and deft wordplay, sing-along numbers and against all advice, a selection of 'drawings'. Quite a lot of them horses.
This new show contains a spattering of favourites, alongside new work. As well as the titular horses, and a selection from the creature back catalogue, there are previously undisclosed diary entries - some from poetry workshops, and one from a visit to a novelty fancy dress disco, attired as a French baroque composer and music theorist.
Expect myths, moths, but no mathematics. Audio and visual stimulation. Entertainment. And thought provocation.
Devised for adults but not unsuitable for the odd nine-year-old.
