Pack your bags and hold onto your hats - the race is on!

Join a fearless troupe of actor-musicians as they hurtle across continents in this riotously entertaining, globe-trotting show inspired by Jules Verne’s much-loved classic. 

With the clock ticking, Phileas Fogg and his quick-thinking companions attempt the impossible: travelling around the world in just 80 days.

Expect dazzling live music, outrageous characters and inventive storytelling as London, Bombay and beyond burst into life. Featuring trains, boats and plenty of theatrical mayhem, this joyful open-air adventure is packed with fun, flair and surprise at every turn.

Based on the novel by Jules Verne, Adapted by Chris Fung, Directed by Tara Noonan.

Age Guidance: 10+ (perfect for families and explorers of all ages!)
