Fisherman's Friends The Musical

by Amanda Whittington

Based on the true story of the chart-topping Cornish singing sensations and their hit 2019 movie, Fisherman’s Friends: The Musical is a feel-good voyage about friendship, community and music.
‍
When a group of Cornish fishermen came together to sing the traditional working songs they’d sung for generations, nobody expected the story to end on the Pyramid Stage at Glastonbury. They are spotted by a fish-out-of-water music manager on a trip from London, who must learn that there is more to life than selling your sole for fifteen minutes of fame.
