RHOrk ‘Comedy Meets Orkestra’ (with Alistair McGowan) | Shrewsbury

The Rainer Hersch Orkestra takes to the road for a rare UK appearance outside London in the company of master impressionist and musician Alistair McGowan.  Expect an evening of stand-up comedy and great music from the 1812 Overture by way of Bolero, TV themes, film music and much, much more. Yes, it’s a concert Jim but not as you know it and whether you are a professor of harmony or couldn’t tell a string quartet from a string vest, this is guaranteed to be “the funniest concert you will ever see” Time Out.
