Get ready to sing along and laugh out loud as we celebrate Tom Lehrer's music legacy in a lively event full of humor and great tunes!

Tom Lehrer Is Alive and Well and Has Given Away All Rights To His Music is poised to become THE LONGEST RUNNING MUSICAL IN FREDERICK, MD! A must-see if you are visiting town for the weekend.

The acclaimed show—created and performed by Andrew Lloyd Baughman—uses a delightfully twisted framing device: Baughman appears as Professor Charles Chucklenut, a deranged academic defending a dissertation on Lehrer's ongoing relevance in our current age of absurdity. Featuring nearly 20 of Lehrer's iconic songs—like Poisoning Pigeons in the Park, National Brotherhood Week, I Wanna Go Back to Dixie, and The Masochism Tango—the show revives the satirical genius of Tom Lehrer with modern urgency and no apologies.

After its NYC debut at Don’t Tell Mama in November 2024, Cabaret Scenes called the production “highly successful,” praising Baughman as “a skilled interpreter” whose performance makes even the darkest satire land with charm and precision. The show sold out every performance of its Capital Fringe Run (named "Best of the Fest" by DC Theatre Arts) as well as summer 2025 tour performances in NYC, Pittsburgh, Philadelphia, Baltimore, Wilmington, Jacksonville, and Orlando!
