Spread the love

We love that Austin really puts on a show every summer – like literally puts on FREE OUTDOOR shows for Central Texas audiences. And one of our favorite local troupes, Penfold Theatre will be presenting “Around the World in 80 Days” at the Round Rock Amphitheater from June 1-24, 2017.

This new, hilarious take on the classic Jules Verne novel “Around the World in 80 Days” follows the fearless adventuress Phyllida Fogg, who agrees to an outrageous wager that puts her life and fortune at risk. Danger, romance and comic surprises abound as six actors playing dozens of characters circle the globe in a dramatic race against time!

Running time: about 2 hours with one intermission.Recommended for ages 5 and up. THIS PRODUCTION IS FREE-OF-CHARGE. NO RESERVATIONS ARE REQUIRED. DONATIONS ARE APPRECIATED. Around the World in 80 Days is based on the novel by Jules Verne; adapted and directed by Emily Rankin; and features Jess Hughes, Eva McQuade, Robert Berry, Ryan Crowder and Megan Sherrod.

We really enjoy the Penfold Theatre productions, especially the summer ones. We like to take a picnic dinner, a bottle of wine, and spread out our blankets to watch some amazing performances under the stars. Makes for a great date night!
