“Reduces audiences to tears and rapture”

– The Guardian

The well-known Welsh writer and performer Shôn Dale-Jones brings his brand new piece of warm-hearted comic storytelling to the Torch Theatre in March 2023. The show – Still Floating is about love and resilience and it will make us laugh at things that should make us cry.

When someone suggests that Shôn should remount his 2006 Total Theatre award-winning hit show FLOATING (Barbican, Sydney Opera House) about the Isle of Anglesey floating away from mainland Britain, he is sure it isn’t what the world needs right now. 2006 is not 2023.

As Shôn, a director, performer and writer explains why he shouldn’t be presenting the show, we find out that sometimes going backwards helps us to move forwards. Told by two-time Fringe First winner, this is a funny, uplifting and moving story, making the real and unreal fit together in one surprising whole.

Shôn has presented his work all over the UK, Europe, USA, Canada and Australia and is best known as an award-winning writer/performer with his comic creation, Hugh Hughes, ‘Story Of A Rabbit’, ‘360’, ‘Stories From An Invisible Town’ and ‘Things I Forgot I Remembered’. He was also awarded winner of Best Scripted Comedy Drama at the BBC Radio Awards.

Still Floating will visit the Torch Theatre on Wednesday, March 22 at 7.30pm. Tickets can be purchased from the Box Office Torch Theatre on 01646 695267 or torchtheatre.co.uk.
