Port Sunlight Sea Dogs

Come celebrate maritime history with a rant and a roar! Haunting ballads, wonderful harmonies, raucous choruses and a barrel of laughs.

With its own historic ports from Bangor and Holyhead, to Barry and Swansea, Theatr Clwyd is just the place for Port Sunlight Sea Dogs to ‘sing out’ tales of sailors and whalers, in mildly raucous working songs, lusty choruses and wistful ballads of homes far away.

Expect shanties and songs of a sailor’s hard life on the high seas, of heroes and villains, smugglers and wreckers. With bully beef in their bellies, and salt water in their grog, their music is steeped in folk and Celtic traditions, Merseybeat, Beatles, Skiffle, and even opera!

Port Sunlight Sea Dogs are John Coleman, Mal Lowe, John Thackray, Denis Toohey and Arthur Vaughan; born, bred and well-seasoned performers from the banks of the Mersey.
