20,000 Leagues Under the Sea at Salford Quays

Walk the Plank, the unique company which performs on board its special theatre ship, brings its production of Jules Verne's 20,000 Under the Sea to Salford Quays in May.

Jules Verne's tale of Captain Nemo combined adventure, science and an audacious imagination to achieve great popularity back in 1869. Walk the Plank's new production will use the same qualities, as well as the uniquely atmospheric setting of the theatre ship - with its steel decks and massive watertight doors - to conjure up the strange underwater world of the sci-fi submarine Nautilus, and her enigmatic captain.
