About this Event
WINNER: Best Comedy Adelaide Fringe 2024
Batten down the hatches and seal your porthole! It's time for the silliest, most outrageous, naughty and nautical show ever made about someone who is part boat, part woman... and full clown. Come with Motorboat on a sea voyage of self- discovery, silliness and stupidity. This time with live musical accompaniment by Josh Cake!
Directed by Sharnema Nougar. Design consultation by Douglas Wilson. Sound design by Max Paton.
