Time warp! 💥 Our first curtain call back in 2021 through to our last in 2026 🤯

The national tour 2026 of The Freshwater Five by Liam Patrick Harrison () comes to a mighty end.

From ACE rejections and Covid planning in 2020 over the sea to our coastal people. From the bright lights big city to the small village venue, through the snowy depths of Winter in Wales to the long piercing rays of Summer in Scotland in 2026.

From small beginnings on our little old IOW, to some of the biggest stages and eyeballs out there, this show has grown and grown and we have hung on for the ride 🌊

Our fight and the men's goes on!

But now...

That which drew from out the boundless deep
Turns again home...

Special thanks on this tour to our incredible partners:studios

And in no particular order:
