Where Did You Get That Hat? is a comic song which was composed and first performed by Joseph J. Sullivan at Miner's Eighth Avenue Theatre in 1888. It was a great success and has since been performed by many others including J. C. Heffron, Stanley Holloway and Dave Barnes.[1][2] The song is now also a very popular piece performed for musical theatre exams (grades 4 to 8) and music hall concerts.
