I really don't know which is worse! Wallace and Gromit or Willy Fog!

Dear Forum Members

I've been asked to post details of the upcoming production of Around the
World in 80 Days at the Bristol Old Vic Theatre. This coincides with the
selection of the novel as the text for 'The Great Reading Adventure', an
initiative launched to encourage reading across the South West of England.
You'll find an excellent website with some well-researched background
information about Verne and 80 Days at http://www.swreads.com .

Best wishes

Tim Unwin

On the very same day that the Bank of England is robbed, Mr Phileas Fogg
and his faithful manservant Passepartout hurriedly escape London in the
middle of the night to circumnavigate the globe in a mere 80 days.

On boats and trains and elephants, from the Mystical East via the Darkest
Jungle to the Wild West, Jules Verne's tale of travel and adventure bursts
on to the stage with the unstoppable force of a runaway steam locomotive.

Toby Hulse adapts and directs. His previous work at Bristol Old Vic
includes the No Loud Bangs series and The Chatterbox. The cast of three
are: Howard Coggins (Alice's Adventures in Wonderland; Beasts and
Beauties), Craig Edwards (The Great Big Story Mix Up, A Midsummer Night's
Dream) and Nick Caldecott in his Bristol Old Vic debut.

Around The World in 80 Days marks Brunel 200.  It is also The Great Reading
Adventure 2006 -- a scheme encouraging children and young adults in the
South West to read Jules Verne's fast-paced classic.
