EDINBURGH 2026!
Second show onsale today @summerhallarts
Park Theatre Productions and Tigco present
Adam Riches: ‘The Captain’
From the writer of Jimmy, the totally sold-out, smash-hit, one-man show of Summerhall 2024 –
‘...solo shows are ten a penny at the Edinburgh Fringe, but this feels like one in a million’ ★★★★★ (Telegraph)
– comes the true story of Captain Matthew Webb, the first man to ever swim the English Channel.
The bravery! The fortitude! The outright insanity!
It’s time to remember this most humble of men, this Shopshire lad, whose extraordinary feat ought to be far more celebrated than it is.
A man who died as he lived, chasing the impossible.
Anatomy Theatre, Summerhall
11.45am
6th Aug - 31st Aug (not 17th & 24th )

thanku @leicscomedyfest i think it’s the first thing I’ve ever won, i sent @williamandroids this mad scribble and he turned it into exactly what I had in my brain 🧠 if you need a poster he’s your man @comedydesigner & @impatientproductions were incredible at helping with everything 🙌🏻🌝💓
Will added a quote that said I was “plucky but doomed” and we all thought it was a joke but turns out it was real lol #pluckybutdoomed (next title of next show) 🙏🏻
Part whatever the hell of poster chat. Is this useful? I don't know. I hope so. It's all meant with the best intentions. Find Laura Whitehouse via the internet service "google" or at Laurawhitehouse.com #posterchat
Part 3 of poster chat. A bit more specific... Also... Showcasing the work of Matt Crockett, Richard Hardcastle, penny Klein and Michael Jullings #posterchat
