Don't Rock the Boat

Don't Rock the Boat

DON’T ROCK THE BOAT


In a wild ride down the Thames, the tranquil river waters turn into a storm in a teapot as Robin Hawdon's brilliant comedy unfolds!


Picture this. Brash, self-made property tycoon Arthur Bullhead is on a mission to seal the deal of his dreams. But instead of a boardroom, he chooses the quirky setting of his converted riverside barge, the Bunty, for a weekend getaway with the local planning committee chairman and his unsuspecting family.


Little do they know, Bullhead's idea of a relaxing weekend involves more chaos than calm. With personalities clashing like bumper cars at a fairground, the stage is set for a comedy of errors. Bullhead's shady business tactics clash with the straight-laced Coombes family's morals faster than you can say "high tide."


As the weekend unfolds, Bullhead's antics leave the Coombes in knots, with his offer dangling like a carrot on a fishing line. But will they take the bait, or will they stage a mutiny on the Bunty?! With Bullhead's skittish wife Mary and rebellious daughter Shirley adding fuel to the fire, it's a recipe for hilarity that'll leave you in stitches!

Rick Wakeman & Peter Egan

Peter Egan & Rick Wakeman - Animals Asia


Every year, acclaimed actor Peter Egan, The Mill’s very first Artistic Director, produces a special charity event for Animals Asia, a dedicated animal rights activist and Animals Asia’s UK Ambassador. Peter is thrilled that his great friend, the legendary performer Rick Wakeman has agreed to co-host a matinee performance on 31st August. A delicious vegan and vegetarian menu will be on offer for lunch before the show.


Peter has starred in television’s EVER DECREASING CIRCLES, DOWNTON ABBEY, AFTER LIFE with Ricky Gervais, UNFORGOTTEN and most recently TRUE LOVE. Rick is a classically trained Keyboardist and Composer, best known as a former member of YES. The double Act of these two impressive men is a spectacle to behold. Fabulous music from Rick, laughter and some truly heart warming stories about the Moon Bears of Asia. Peter & Rick will be joined by a special guest to be announced at a later date.


Joining Peter Egan and Rick Wakeman this evening are two very special guest artists: Mollie Marriott and Adam Wakeman.


Mollie Marriott, daughter of rock legend Steve Marriott, has collaborated with some of the biggest names in music, including Oasis, Robert Plant, The Who, Jeff Beck, and Paul Weller. Her 2017 album, Truth Is A Wolf, featured contributions from Weller himself.


She will be joined by Adam Wakeman, Rick Wakeman’s son, a highly sought-after keyboard player and musical director. Adam has worked with some of the industry’s biggest names and is currently in his 19th year as a member of Ozzy Osbourne’s band, playing keyboards and additional guitar on the No More Tours 2 world tour. He also co-wrote six tracks on Ozzy’s 2010 platinum-selling, Grammy-nominated album, SCREAM.


This sparkling event will raise funds for ANIMALS ASIA which promotes compassion and respect for all animals, working to end the barbaric bear bile trade in China and Vietnam, rescuing over 500 bears so far and caring for them at their award-winning sanctuaries. A live auction will take place during the show to raise funds for Animals Asia.
