About the event
What happens when your dream job turns into a dead end – and your escape plan involves a boat? Meet Blodwen: Welsh, wide-eyed, and wondering what the hell happened.
With original songs, sharp comedy and a big heart, Blodwen Rocks the Boat follows one woman’s hilarious journey from burnout to breakthrough.
Created and performed by Emily Davis – a Welsh singer and actor who’s taken her signature character, Blodwen, to stages across the UK – the show is a joyful, satirical, and uplifting hour of musical mischief.
Following a hit run at the Edinburgh Fringe (★★★★ Three Weeks, Dark Chat), and direction by Paulus the Cabaret Geek, Blodwen Rocks the Boat is perfect for anyone who’s ever quit a job, questioned their choices – or just needs a good laugh.
With music by Andy Campbell Smith, this is a show for the dreamers, the doers, and anyone ready to jump ship.
