Flo and Joan : With Feeling
Flo & Joan bring their razor-sharp musical comedy back to The Anvil on Thursday 15 October 2026, promising a night of witty songs, deadpan delivery, and brilliantly crafted humour.
The celebrated musical comedy duo Flo & Joan return to Basingstoke with a brand-new show at The Anvil. Known for their sharp wit, perfectly timed songs, and unique ability to dismantle the conventions of a “jolly musical double act,” they’ll take audiences on a hilarious journey through themes such as:
- What is music?
- How do you be a band?
- Is comedy?
All delivered in their signature deadpan, sharp-tongued style.
Where You’ve Seen Them
Flo & Joan have built a reputation as one of the UK’s most exciting comedy acts, with appearances on:
- Live at the Apollo
- The Royal Variety Performance
- Comic Relief’s Red Nose Day Live 2023
- Their own Amazon Prime comedy special Alive on Stage
Critics have praised them as:
- “Brilliantly written, superbly performed” – The Stage
- “Musical comedy hasn’t been in such safe hands for years” - The List
- “They briefly appear to be a jolly musical double act, but tear that to pieces about two bars into the first, perfectly timed song” - Sunday Times
Flo & Joan are not just another comedy duo, they’re a phenomenon in musical comedy. Their ability to blend clever songwriting with biting humour makes them a must-see act. Whether you’ve caught them on TV or are discovering them live for the first time, expect a night of laughter, originality, and songs you’ll be humming long after the curtain falls.
