Around the World In Eighty Days

  • Show Information

The Anthos Young Company cast (age 11-18) return for a brand-new, globetrotting adventure!

Abigail Fortescue, an aspiring journalist determined to prove herself, thinks she may finally have her chance when she hears that Phileas Fogg, a mysterious gentleman, has bet his fortune that he can travel the around the world in eighty days.

Notepad in hand, she sets off with Fogg and his hapless assistant Passepartout to document the adventure. Unbeknownst to the three, there has been a robbery at the Bank of England and the prime suspect… Phileas Fogg himself! Now pursued by the ever-persistent Inspector Fix and a shadowy organisation bent on stopping them, can the trio arrive back in London by Christmas Eve?

Hold on to your top-hats and join the AYC as they tackle one of Jules Verne’s most famous pieces, putting their own spin on the classic tale.
