In 1882, in Denmark, young Georges dreams only of travel and adventure. In an attempt to cure him of his obsessions, his fiancée Eva consults the mysterious Dr. Ox.
But far from curing him, Dr. Ox reveals that he is the son of John Hatteras, the famous North Pole explorer! He then encourages him to drink a magical elixir that will enable him to achieve the impossible and surpass his greatest heroes: to go farther than Professor Lidenbrock to the center of the Earth, to dive deeper than Captain Nemo into the oceans, and to travel from one planet to another like Michel Ardan!
In an attempt to bring him to his senses, the musician Maître Volsius and the sweet Eva set off in pursuit on a grand journey around the world and through space.
Blending humor, poetry, and live visual effects, this show transforms Jules Verne’s office into a fantastic playground where giant tentacles, volcanoes, and spaceships burst forth from everyday objects!
