Arthur Ransome's famous and much-loved children's classic is brought thrillingly to life in Helen Edmundson's wonderfully theatrical adaptation, with 'delightfully catchy and often witty' (Telegraph) songs by Neil Hannon of The Divine Comedy
When John, Susan, Titty and Roger are granted their wish to set sail on their beloved boat Swallow, they know it will be the summer holiday of a lifetime. But their adventure truly begins when they encounter Nancy and Peggy, the self-proclaimed Amazon Pirates, and the dastardly Captain Flint.
This adaptation was first performed at the Bristol Old Vic in 2010. It had its West End premiere in 2011.
Helen Edmundson is a multi-award-winning writer who is well known for her adaptations for Shared Experience and the National Theatre, as well as her original plays.
Neil Hannon is a singer and songwriter, the creator of pop group The Divine Comedy.
