‘What a Ship Show’ follows ‘Prime Minister in Exile’ Horris Franklin-Winkles, Etonian yes-man Edward Peep, and their special advisor Barty White as they flee to Guernsey.
After all three were wrapped up in a tempestuous tenure leading the country, their roles within ‘Conform GB’, are untenable. So, on the morning following election night, as the opposition are celebrating their mandate, these three are bobbing in a dinghy. Their goal? To take over the political class of the sunny Isle of Guernsey. On their journey they encounter boats, storms and as always, squabbles. 

Can these three succeed at sea where they failed in cabinet? The voyage is stormy, much like their political careers.

Satirically daft and set in a raft, it’s political catharsis but also a warning for the future.
