20,000 Leagues Under the Sea – Strawdog Theatre
Jules Verne’s 1870 sci-fi classic, was subtitled “An Underwater Tour of the World.” More scientifically accurate than his Journey to the Center of the Earth and more exciting than his Around the World in 80 Days, this book remains one of Verne’s most popular novels, even to this day.
