3 in a Bar is a trio made up of three teachers with a love of music, who by day teach the youth of the 21st Century and by night (and the occasional afternoon) entertain the youth of yesteryear. They are:
Alison Ashburner | |
![]() | By day Alison teaches German and Italian at a secondary school in Dorking, but by night… As well as making the occasional foray into duet singing (including the immortal Cat Duet with Rachel), Alison is the one-woman orchestra in the trio. She plays keyboards and piano and sometimes even violin or tin whistle (in which case Dave is forced to play the piano). |
Dave Farmer | |
![]() | The ever-youthful Dave, in real life an Adult Education Manager and also part of the acclaimed duo 'Anything Goes', is responsible for the titillation of the women in the trio's audiences. With irreverent jokes and even the occasional quiz he guides audiences through a roller-coaster evening of hilarity and sentimentality. Even real old battleaxes have been reduced to tears of emotion (or laughter). |
Rachel Nunns | |
![]() | Rachel, by day deputy head of a primary school in Crawley, softens audiences' hearts with her beautiful voice and sharpens their minds with her pithy observations. The combination of her and Dave in classic duets (such as I Remember It Well) has to be seen to be believed, and her renditions of some of the world's greatest torch songs and tear-jerkers have audiences begging for more. |
All Six Hands | |
![]() | On special occasions, all three members of the trio squash themselves onto one piano stool and entertain astonished audiences with pieces of music for six hands. On days when they are feeling too plump they resort to pieces for four hands so that someone gets a rest... but who will it be?... |
