Jules Verne's classic novel comes to life on stage with five actors playing more then three dozen roles! Proper London gentleman Phileas Fogg strikes a wager with fellow members of the Reform Club that he can travel around the world in a mere 80 days--a mighty feat in the 1870s. With him goes his trusty French servant, Passepartout, while tenacious Detective Fix, who has mistaken Fogg for a fugitive bank robber, shadows him every step of the way. On his journey, Fogg encounters romance, adventure and a host of colorful characters who both help and hinder his progress. Will Fogg make it back in time to win the wager? This fast-paced, clever comedy is a stylish theatrical rollercoaster ride that the L.A. Times called "clever, crisp and cunning."
