The Barn Theatre announce cast of AROUND THE WORLD IN EIGHTY DAYS

The Barn Theatre in Cirencester have announced the cast of their upcoming production of Toby Hulse’s fast paced and playfully comic adaptation of Jules Verne’s epic adventure novel Around the World in Eighty Days, which plays from 30 January-11 March 2023.

Around the World in Eighty Days will be directed by Joseph O’Malley, and will star Evangeline Dickson (Doctor Who: Time Fracture, West End) as Fix of the Yard, James El-Sharawy (The Response, The Seagull Theatre/Soho Theatre) as Passepartout and Adam Elliot (Agatha Christie's The Mousetrap, West End) as Phileas Fogg.

In the great Victorian Age, it is clearly impossible to go around the world in eighty days, and only an idiot would try it.  It is also clearly impossible to tell this story with only three actors, but these idiots are going to take us all on a breath-taking roller-coaster ride around the world; filled with thrills and adventure, and no short order of panache, in a Built By Barn version of a rollicking, side splitting, laugh a minute, adaptation. Maybe, through the power of human invention and a bit of Barn ingenuity, they might just pull it off.
