Prepare to welcome aboard two Comedy Sailors who take their maritime responsibilities very seriously, even if they are not entirely sure what they are doing.
Featuring a confident captain and his rather less capable cadet, this interactive walkabout act brings nautical themed comedy directly amongst your guests. The pair roam the event checking that everything is suitably shipshape while attempting to recruit new crew members for their next voyage.
Guests may find themselves caught up in chaotic knot tying demonstrations, learning some rather questionable semaphore signals or receiving essential instructions for surviving an unexpected encounter with an iceberg. Improvisation and audience interaction keep the encounters spontaneous, with the performers adapting their comedy to the people and situations around them.
The Comedy Sailors work particularly well at maritime events, seaside celebrations, festivals and waterfront venues, but their accessible character comedy also makes them great fun for corporate events, private parties and family audiences.

Why Choose This Act?
Comedy Sailors offer a particularly useful entertainment option for events where you want performers to interact naturally with guests rather than asking everyone to stop and watch a formal show.
The maritime characters give the performers an immediate reason to approach people, recruit new crew and involve guests in their antics. This makes the act particularly effective at busy public events, festivals and shopping centres where audiences are constantly moving.
Their nautical theme also provides an obvious entertainment choice for harbours, waterfront developments, cruise events, boat shows and seaside locations where more generic walkabout characters may feel less connected to the occasion.
With two experienced comedy performers working together, the act can create small spontaneous scenes throughout the event while still allowing guests to join in as much or as little as they choose.
