Come aboard the SS Madeira for this nautical musical comedy featuring, for the first time on stage, Noel Coward's 'P&O 1930', his magical evocation of the historic P&O route home to Britain from the Far East, when a voyage took weeks rather than hours and the passengers got up to all sorts of antics en route. Actor, pianist and singer Michael Lunts brings to life this wonderfully eccentric cast of Coward characters and includes many of 'The Master's' best-loved songs, from 'Matelot' to 'Mad Dogs and Englishmen', from 'Nina' to 'Marvellous Party' and, of course, 'Sail Away'! |

| “Deliciously
witty... a quintessentially English flavour superbly captured by this
gifted performer” “A
charming and innovative piece... Michael Lunts has captured the quality
of Coward, performing his many roles, while playing the piano and
singing, completely in character” “A
rare gem evoking the genuine spirit of Coward” |
