Sailor Swift – from the artist formerly known as Pete Morton

Event Information

The friendly ghost of a sailor haunts an old pub, meeting and talking with people through the centuries. the famous and infamous, observing the changing world with a smile and a quick wit, singing popular songs from times gone by.


“This new show of Pete’s is a tour de force, it is honestly a revelation, and a real joy, to see a performer at the top of his already deeply impressive game. … A happy mixture of music hall, pantomime, standup comedy, rowdy back room folk clubs, with moments of utter beauty and breathtaking audacity, it is a unique experience. It’s full of laughter, singalongs, history, poetry, philosophy and life affirming fun. It’s one of the very best things I’ve ever seen.” Rick Wakefield - Quorn Village Hall
