About Around the World in 80 Days

Time is ticking and the stakes couldn’t be higher. Phileas Fogg — ever the gentleman adventurer — sets off on an extraordinary challenge: to circumnavigate the world in just 80 days. With his quick‑thinking companions beside him, every stop brings new surprises, outrageous characters and daring escapes.

From the bustling streets of London to the colour and chaos of Bombay and far beyond, the world bursts into life through dazzling live music, inventive storytelling and joyful theatrical mischief. Expect trains, boats, close shaves and plenty of glorious mayhem as this open‑air spectacle hurtles from continent to continent.

Playful, imaginative and packed with flair, this is a globe‑trotting escapade the whole family will adore.

Are the shows at St Paul's Church outdoors?

Yes, these summer performances are all performed in the gardens

What happens if it rains at St Pauls'?

The Great British summertime is famous for its unpredictable weather! In 99% of chances, the performance will continue come rain or shine. In cases of heavy rain, it may be necessary to halt the performance for a short period. In the unlikely circumstance of extreme weather (including extreme heat), the performance may be postponed until a further date. 

Do please dress for the weather accordingly! If possible, try to avoid bringing umbrellas as they can block sight-lines for other audience members. Raincoats and ponchos are just as fetching - St Paul's can provide free ponchos for audience members without any suitable cover!

Can I book specific seats for performances?

Most performances has unreserved seating, and is on a first come, first served basis. Alternatively, if you would prefer to bring your own chair or picnic blanket, please let the Front Of House staff know, and will do the best to seat you.
