Summary

WS Gilbert – The Bab Ballads. Before Gilbert was part of the famous Gilbert & Sullivan opera team, he wrote light verse that was very odd but arrived at a logical conclusion...we think! Luckily, the joyous Stanley Holloway is on hand to read and make sense of it all.

Here’s what you can look forward to hearing: 'Peter the Wag'; 'The Sensation Captain'; 'The Ape and the Lady'; 'The Yarn of the Nancy Bell'; 'Ben Allah Achmet, or The Fatal Tum'; 'Phrenology'; 'Babette's Love'.
