A rip-roaring Christmas advanture for all the family from the adventure stories of Jack London.....

Directed by Saul Jaffe
Adapted by Lena Rae
Designed by Sam Pine

Target Audience: Family fun from 6 years old+
Running Time: Approx. 70mins (no interval)

From the thrilling tales of Jack London, proteus and BodyJam present a gripping show for all the family this Christmas. From the frozen wastelands of the Yukon, to the tropics of the Southern Seas, we blaze a trail following the fortunes of the wild, the wily and the wistful. London's stories are as full of adventure as The Thousand and One Nights, bursting with characters quirkier than Dickens and surprisingly more revealing of human nature than the Brothers Grimm. In these tales, where mankind takes on nature, a quick tongue may beat a quick fist, but a quick wit beats them all... hands down!

To bring Aurora to your venue we will need:

18' x 18' x 10' high (5.5m x 5.5m x 3m high) However we can adapt the playing space to suit your venue - call us for details.

The company tours with its own sound and lighting rig.

Please contact us for more information about doing a post show talk or workshop in your venue when we bring this show to you.

To book this show please call Ross Harvie on 01256 354541 or e-mail ross@proteustheatre.com
