Ahoy me hearties Festus McBoyle is an old bandmate of my husband’s who has gone on to great things as a party pirate arrrrgggghh. Ok sorry I’ll stop that now. Richard is a very talented performer capable of totally convincing kids they’re meeting someone who really could know Captain Jack Sparrow and his cronies. Obviously he’s a pretty popular choice for kids parties but is readily available for all your pirate needs — whatever they might be. You can get him on his own or even better, with his sidekick Fungal Finnegan and they are The Pros. There’s merchandising including a soon-to-be-released album and videos and I reckon they probably need their own tele show. Their performances are tailored to each occasion so whether you want an educational show for the kiddies or something a bit dirtier and rum-soaked(figuratively speaking of course) for the grown-ups, these guys are your grotbags. Really. You shouldn’t consider any other pirates. They got this.
