Island Cruises gets comical

Island Cruises has teamed up exclusively with Jongleurs, the UK’s number one comedy brand and the world’s largest chain of comedy clubs, to bring laughs on board for 2008.

Andy Furlong, Marketing Director, ‘We are delighted to be launching the first Jongleurs Comedy Club at Sea. Jongleurs represent the absolute best in British comedy and Island Cruises is excited to be bringing their comedians on board the Island Star.

I am sure they will enjoy their time providing comedy in Jongleurs first ever floating comedy club’ adds Maria Kempinska, Managing Director, Jongleurs.

Twice a week Jongleurs will be taking up residency in the Bounty Club on board the Island Star.
