Harp and a Monkey
From naked lifesavers to bare-knuckle boxers, and medieval pilgrims to gorilla gardeners, the latest show (Tall Tales and Truths) by award-winning folk song and storytelling trio Harp & a Monkey is not to be missed.
Poignant, melodic, accessible and humorous, this engaging performance by the acclaimed Lancastrian multi-instrumentalists is a celebration of ‘the extraordinary ordinary’.
Renowned for the wonderful rapport they achieve with their audiences, Harp and a Monkey are three old friends who have been delighting audiences on the national folk, acoustic and roots circuit for the best part of 20 years now.
