Three Men in a Boat London Tickets

Three Men in a Boat is a riotous new comedy coming to Rose Theatre Kingston, bringing Jerome K. Jerome's much-loved novel to life with a world premiere full of friendship, adventure and glorious chaos.

What is Three Men in a Boat about?

Jerome, George and Harris are lifelong pals who are always ready to jump in and help one another out. So, naturally, a carefree boat trip up the Thames from leafy Kingston to Oxford's dreaming spires should go perfectly.

Except, of course, for torrential rain, alarmingly eccentric dogs and some dangerously rancid cheese. Soon, their idyllic trip descends into hallucinations, calamity and an encounter with three dozen angry swans.

A riotous new comedy by Al Smith, Three Men in a Boat is based on Jerome K. Jerome's classic novel and features original songs by Grant Olding. Directed by Christopher Haydon, this world premiere celebrates abiding friendship and calamitous adventure.
