Trapped like sardines in a can, Professor Arronax and his group of unlikely companions are imprisoned in the indestructible submarine Nautilus. Caught up in Captain Nemo's evil plot to rule the world, can this hapless bunch of adventurers find a way to stop him or will they become his victims? Written in 1869, by the father of Science Fiction, Jules Verne’s prophetic novel 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea is brought to life on the Hull Truck stage like never before. The power of the novel resonates like it was written yesterday. Join Captain Nemo and the crew of the Nautilus as they live out their secret existence under the sea. Witness Professor Aronnax wonder at the sea’s power and mystery and Ned Land’s famous temper.

This new adaptation by John Godber brings the whole event to life, so you can practically taste the sea... let the power of imagination ignite you!
