Two actors, one musician, and 40+ characters. Join Captain Morrow and her motley crew as they race to defeat the British Navy and secure the legendary Sands of Time.
Directed by Barnie Duncan and premiering in Aotearoa for the first time, this critically acclaimed show is perfect for comedy festival fans and traditional theatre-goers alike.
Two actors, one musician, 40+ characters and 60 minutes.
This fast-paced comedy is a bonkers, brilliant, and gloriously absurd showcase of what two actors and one musician can achieve in 60 minutes - without any set, props, or costume changes. Two actors transform into an entire pirate crew, bringing over 40 characters to life as they race against the British Navy on a hunt to find the treasured Sands of Time, battling sea gods, slaying monsters, and outwitting their opponents.
From the mind of playwright Ben Behrens, the writing has received the highly distinguished Edinburgh Fringe ‘Bobby Award’, and been described as “A comedy romp that leaves you wanting more!” by The British Theatre Guide.
