Angry Boater - Deep Comedy from Shallow Waters

As featured on Channel 4’s ‘Narrow Escapes’ Joel Sanders is the former Las Vegas comedian who swapped the hubbub of the city for a NICE CALM LIFE on the waterways.

‘Angry Boater’ is a hugely entertaining night of comedy about the joys, perils & madness of swapping suburban comforts for a life on the UK’s waterways. Whether you’ve lived on a boat or not, this engaging show is packed with surprises from the waterways and beyond.

You’ll hear about Joel’s awkward encounter with an A-list celebrity in a boatyard, what happened when he met one of the biggest rock bands in the world and the time he found a body in a lock on the River Soar!

Formerly, Joel was a comedian with the grand plan of becoming the first Brit to play all 50 US States. He managed 40, performing everywhere from the Deep South’s redneck bars to casinos & theatres in the more traditional destinations. Joel lived the dream and worked with many of his comedy heroes, including Robin Williams.

Last year, Channel 4 followed Joel‘s adventures as he travelled on his narrowboat between shows in London & The Midlands and, in series 2 of ‘Narrow Escapes,’ Joel returns on his biggest voyage yet - taking his narrowboat out to sea!

Discover how he fared in the final 3 episodes of the series and catch him live on his UK tour from June 2025.
