It’s not every day you meet someone who has a brother for a horse. Not, like, as a metaphor – like, a literal horse. Like, biologically. But what does this have to do with why patience is a virtue that I’ve never had? And by God, who cares if I’m a baritone?

Leo Amadeus is an actor, writer and musician who will take many secrets to the grave. No further context will be provided on that. Having performed this show in Sydney and Canberra before, Leo is taking this show back to Canberra before returning to the Sydney Fringe Festival (and then probably back to Canberra, then to Sydney again) in a rather confusing and elaborate ruse to secretly acquire some M&Ms (definitely no M&Ms at the show. Definitely). In this collection of comedy songs, you will be let into their world of the fornicating mice in their roof, their hatred of their genetic voice box, their inability to perform classical music and the hijinks they get up to when left to their own devices.
