Introduction
The Cast
Production team
Terra Nova is the story of Captain Robert Falcon Scott's expedition to the South Pole and his discovery that the Norwegian explorer, Roald Amundsen had preceded him.
The play provides fateful glimpses of Scott and his companions, Wilson, Bowers, Oates and Evans as well as Amundsen and Scott's wife, Kathleen.
Relating with chilling intensity, the awesome bravery of men who must accept the bitter knowledge that suffering and death will be the only reward for their heroism, the play vividly illustrates the best and worst in our natures.
This theatrical tour de force captures the epic sweep of times and personalities when the last place on earth had yet to be conquered by man.
