Pirates! A Boy At Sea at The River Church

Pirates! A Boy At Sea follows eleven-year-old Jim Watts, who is whisked away from his ordinary life by a mysterious treasure chest into a high-stakes conflict between pirate Captain Freely and British Captain McGovern. As Jim navigates battles, wacky pirates, and hungry sharks, he must confront his own fears and the complexities of his fractured family. The cast includes Akili Gathers and David Holt as the rival captains, Devin Jacobs as Jim, and Bryan Squires and Lydia Sayers in multiple comic roles. All Durham performances are pay-what-you-can thanks to a partnership with The River Church.
