Exeter College – BOAT

  • Show Information

All is not well in the pretty picture-postcard seaside town of Sandymouth. It’s the end of the summer season: the rain is falling, the paint on the beach huts is flaking, and tempers are fraying. A mysterious empty boat sits moored by the harbour wall, waiting.

Some say it’s been here before. Some say it’s a portent of doom. No-one knows for sure. What is certain, though, is that for a few of the town’s residents, the urge to get on board is irresistible.

BOAT is a new original musical by Elfyn Jones, developed in conjunction with students at Exeter College’s UAL Musical Theatre course.

Charlie Cook’s Favourite Book artwork. Illustrated. A light green grassy field, in front of forests and mountains. A castle sits in front of the mountain peaks. O the grassy field, (left to right) a green dragon, and orange frog sitting on a stack of books, a bear, a pirate, a knight in medieval armour and a parrot circle around a young boy wearing a red and white striped shirt and blue jeans sitting in a yellow chair with a repeating leaf and parrot pattern. Above, text reads (top to bottom): ‘A musical adaptation of the best-selling book by Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler. Charlie Cook’s Favourite Book.’ Below this text, a crocodile tears apart a book. Other books lie on the right side of the crocodile in the grass.

Houdini’s Greatest Escape artwork: An illustration that shows the top of a crystal ball, within which we see Houdini (a white man wearing a grey suit) with his hands in cuffs, looking surprised. Surrounding him are disembodied hands holding a variety of objects: a fake gun shotting a flag that reads ‘bang!’, a key, a set of playing cards, a safe, an elephant and a goldfish in a bowl. A woman’s face peers over the crystal ball, only her eyes visible.
