At the Drop of a Hat is a musical revue by Flanders and Swann, described by them as "an after-dinner farrago".[1] In the show, they both sang on a nearly bare stage, accompanied by Swann on the piano. The songs were linked by contemporary social commentary, mostly by Flanders. After a long London run the show played in the US, Switzerland, and on tour in Britain.[2]
