John Hegley The Adventures Of Monsieur Robinet
John Hegley The Adventures Of Monsieur Robinet
Wednesday 29 September
Poet and singer John Hegley tells an eclectic medley of tales about a French man with some unusual (but clean) habits, including burying his dog’s kennel and his own luggage. Other stories include an address to aliens on the subject of transport, a poem about a non-talking parrot and some animal impersonations with the aid of a handkerchief. The audience are invited to sing along. But not to dance. Much
John is an Edinburgh Festival regular, noted for his exploration of such diverse topics as dog hair, potatoes, handkerchieves and the misery of human existence.
