Griff Rhys Jones: Overboard

Join us for our last event of the year: a very special send-off.

Fresh off his 'The Cat's Pyjamas' tour, TV and comedy legend Griff Rhys Jones tells tales. From delivering hay on a sailing barge on the Thames to sailing into St Petersburg, canoeing on the Lea, crossing Sweden by canal, or hiring a lightship in New York, taking a fishing Dhow out of Dares Salaam to negotiating aqueducts by narrow boat Griff has spent a lifetime afloat. He restored and still races two old wooden yachts. And sails in the Mediterranean most of every summer. He will share experiences which all started in the mud of the Thames. “It is an ancient mariner…

Expect an evening of charismatic anecdotes, conversation, questions, and sometimes answers.

Griff is very kindly donating proceeds from this unique event to help our not-for-profit venue stay afloat.

Theatreship is committed to broadening access to the arts - we know that ticket price is a huge barrier for some. If the regular ticket price is beyond what you feel able to afford for whatever reason, please don't hesitate to email us at dGlja2V0cyB8IHRoZWF0cmVzaGlwICEgY28gISB1aw== and we'll send you a ticket at whatever price works for you, no questions asked.

We also offer arts supporter tickets, for those that can, to pay a higher price to support the venue, the artists who perform here and subsidised tickets for others.

Due to the historic nature of the ship, we’re sorry to say there is not currently step-free access into the theatre space. We have dedicated staff on hand to help with stairs, and an onsite wheelchair once you’re inside the venue. If you have any access needs, please do e-mail us at YWNjZXNzIHwgdGhlYXRyZXNoaXAgISBjbyAhIHVr.
