Pirate planning to blow the roof off Playhouse Theatre!
Pirate planning to blow the roof off Playhouse Theatre!
On Sunday 13th September, Captain Festus McBoyle and his Travellin’ Variety Show will be appearing at Glen Eden Playhouse for two shows at 3pm and 4.30pm.
The Ultimate Travellin’ Variety Show is headed by Captain Festus McBoyle, supported by his motley crew of misfits. This madcap crew truly are, masters of music and mischief. A fun filled family experience with Vaudeville/pantomime flavours, with just the right amount of ‘Kiwiana’ thrown in for good measure. They are regularly compared to Spike Milligan, Benny Hill & Monty Python. Suitable for pre-schoolers right through to adults. This 40 minute musical comedy show is superb entertainment for the whole family.
Captain Festus has recently acquired a 4 ½ foot, 12 pound cannon, which he is planning on firing inside the theatre. He has assured the public that no small children will be harmed.
Performing all over NZ for 4 years now with appearances at Womad and Splore, Town Hall Shows with the Auckland Philharmonic Orchestra plus numerous Kindy, School and Library shows and private events. They have performed to crowds of 18,000, right down to a small private 'bash' in a sandpit. There’s nothing this lot can’t do, “dying to do a funeral” adds The Captain.
The Captain assures that the punters will be met by some rather interesting characters even before the show starts….be prepared for chaos and do bring lots of puff.
