UW Madhatters Live in Wauwatosa!

Get ready for a Friday evening performance that will get your toes tapping and your spirits soaring as the University of Wisconsin - Madison Madhatters, a nationally known all male a capella vocal group storm the stage at Wauwatosa West High School Friday, March 16. These vocalists, who made singing cool way before Glee or American Idol were ever concocted, belt out favorites from Bon Jovi to The Beatles, Adele to James Brown and more.

The group, founded in 1997, has grown from humble beginnings to a renowned performance group that regularly plays to sold out crowds across the country. In December, the group was invited to perform at the White House for the President and guests at a gala holiday celebration.

Comprised of 16 singers and a vocal percussionist, the MadHatter singers will share their excellent showmanship and energy beyond compare. This will be a performance all ages will enjoy - so get a neighborhood group together, bring your family and friends, or take your parents/grandparents out for a special evening they won't soon forget. Show will last an hour with reception to follow. Proceeds from the event will help offset costs for much needed updates to the Wauwatosa West stage, including a sound system.
