Comedy song inspired by WSPA campaign

Sep 11, 2008

Tim Minchin

Acclaimed Aussie-born comedian Tim Minchin has been inspired by WSPA's work to write a new song for his new show "Ready for This?"

'Bears don't dig on dancing' featured in his sell-out Edinburgh Fringe show and in his current UK tour.

Tim is a hugely popular performer around the world and leapt into the British comedy scene in 2005 when he won the Perrier Best Newcomer award at the Fringe.

He was first inspired to write 'Bears don't dig on dancing' after joining the line-up of generous performers who featured in WSPA's Stand up for Animals comedy night in London this year, organised by writer and comedian Robin Ince.
