About This Show

Adapted from the novel by Jules Verne, Around the World in 80 Days is written and directed by Laura Eason.

The majestically mysterious, fabulously wealthy, heartbreakingly lonely Victorian Phileas Fogg has determined, with mathematical precision, that the world can be circumnavigated in 80 days. On this belief, he has wagered his entire fortune. Will bandits, a herd of buffalo, an act of chivalry, an unreliable but ever faithful valet, and an unrelenting inspector from Scotland Yard keep him from his impossible task? Follow Fogg aboard steamships, locomotives, and pachyderms as he learns about love, himself, and a world that he never anticipated.
