The cast of Fisherman’s Friends the Musical sailed into Salford in style today aboard the City Centre Cruise’s Emmeline Pankhurst, singing sea shanties as they docked outside The Lowry.
The critically-acclaimed show dropped anchor at The Lowry, Salford today – Tuesday 27 September -where it will be making a splash until Saturday 1 October.
Fisherman’s Friends The Musical is based on the true story of the Cornish singing sensations, Fisherman’s Friends, and the hit 2019 film about their life.
When a group of Cornish fishermen came together to sing the traditional working songs they’d sung for generations, they hoped to raise a few quid for charity. Nobody, least of all the fishermen, expected their story to end on the Pyramid stage of Glastonbury. Packed with sea shanties, Fisherman’s Friends The Musical is a feelgood voyage about friendship, community and music.
Featuring hit shanties made famous by the band including Keep Haulin’, Nelson’s Blood, No Hopers Jokers & Rogues and many more.
