Kit & The Widow are two men – Kit Hesketh-Harvey and Richard Sisson – and a piano. Their distinctively British brand of musical humour has attracted a very loyal following for over 30 years.
Television credits include The Royal Variety Performance and their own specials on Channel 4 and they have had many series on Radio 3 and 4. Kit also pops up frequently on Just a Minute.
With a whiff of Noël Coward and a nod towards Tom Lehrer, Kit & The Widow romp through whatever scandals are hitting the headlines, just as Flanders and Swann gently satirised the peccadilloes of a previous generation.
“They combine verbal dexterity with pianistic skill.” The Guardian
