Imagine if during your next function, one of the drink waiters bursts out a huge operatic note initiating thunderous applause; then promptly returns to his duties. A short time later, a competitive second waiter decides to join the stage resulting in a singing duel that includes anything from Pavarotti to Dean Martin or Lloyd Webber to Puccini. But the real fun is only just beginning. To the further surprise of the audience; a third waiter "gate crashes", and the performance concludes a la 'The Three Tenors'.

The Three Waiters involves three talented performers hoaxing and infiltrating your event as 'real' waiting staff. The Three Waiters is not a 'wacky waiters' show, but in fact quite the opposite. The show provides sophisticated, high quality entertainment made up of some of the best performers that opera and music theatre have to offer.

Subtly, the performers infiltrate the function. They work as waiters and are dressed the same as the other waiters. The audience is given no clue of what is to come. Over a period of time, to the surprise of the guests, an unexpected story unfolds taking the audience through a very amusing, sophisticated show a la "The Three Tenors".

The structure and content of The Three Waiters suits a wide spectrum of audience taste by taking away the seriousness often associated with opera and adding an element of fun, spontaneity and surprise. With a repertoire consisting of arias made famous by 'The Three Tenors' along with well-known songs from popular musicals, The Three Waiters have proven equally successful to audiences of football players, auto-mechanics through to the most discerning opera buffs, high-end corporate executives and Heads of State.

Be it a dinner party of twelve guests or a ballroom of two thousand, the structure of the show along with the vast repertoire and experience of each of the performers allows the act to be easily customised to suit your particular requirements.
