Based on the novel by Jules Verne and adapted and directed by Juliet Forster, this brand new, fun and colourful family production tells the story of Around The World In Eighty Days as you've never seen it before.
A band of travelling circus performers embark on their most daring feat yet: to recreate the adventures of Phileas Fogg as he sets off on his race around the world.
But this is a telling of two tales; fact meets fiction as we learn the incredible true story of American journalist Nellie Bly who emulated the character of Phileas in her record-breaking trip around the world.
Watch the drama unfold as our skilled performers traverse every country, embrace each character and navigate every mode of transport, as two tales intertwine on a madcap journey around the globe.
Book now for this brand-new comedy drama that’s perfect for families who love circus, dance and adventure too!
The show runs at 2 hrs plus 20 min interval .
