The Captain

From the writer of Jimmy, the sold-out, smash-hit, one-man show – '...solo shows are ten a penny, this feels like one in a million' ★★★★★ (Telegraph) – comes the true story of Captain Matthew Webb, the first man to swim the English Channel. The bravery! The fortitude! The sheer outright insanity! It's time to remember this most humble of men, whose extraordinary feat ought to be far more celebrated than it is. A man who died as he lived, chasing the impossible.
