Attention All Shipping!

Step aboard the historic lightship LV21 in celebration of the Shipping Forecast.

‘Dogger, Fisher, German Bight’: Charlie Connelly brings the shipping forecast vividly to life in this hilarious and moving celebration of an iconic cultural institution. Charlie explores the broadcast’s remarkable history, unlocks its beguiling mysteries and tells riproaring stories of his own adventures among the sea areas, ensuring the forecast will never sound the same again.

Ahead of the live performance ticket holders are invited to explore the decks and an exhibition featuring a selected collection of Shipping Forecast themed artwork by the acclaimed Kent based artist, writer and lecturer Cas Holmes, whose textile work is often inspired by her life, the journeys she makes, the places she visits and people she meets.
