“Join our three intrepid bachelors Jay, George, and Harris as they spend a disastrous weekend punting up the river Thames. Share their pain as they encounter many nautical hardships. Laugh along with their whisky fueled antics. Gaze in terror as they reach their inevitable tipping point!”

Having garnered much critical and popular acclaim since its premiere at the 2014 Toronto Fringe Festival, Three Men in a Boat has toured both within Canada and internationally in venues varying from 60-seat studios to 1100-seat concert halls. Having been called “a triumph of both physical comedy and wordy wit”, audiences as far as Mumbai, India have revelled in this deft adaptation of the British classic.

Three Men in a Boat is a stage adaptation of Jerome K. Jerome's classic 1889 British travelogue. Adapted for the stage by Dora award winning playwright Mark Brownell. Directed by award-winning director Sue Miner. Featuring the outstanding onstage talents of the Dora-Award nominated ensemble of  Matt Pilipiak, Scott Garland, and Victor Pokinko. Musical Direction by Rigzin Tute. Period costumes by Nina Okens.

​The STAGES Festival will mark their 15th tour stop.
