An unlikely friendship is born and tested on the freezing waters of Antarctica as Shackleton and His Stowaway opens January 10 at Park Theatre in London.

Starring Richard Ede (The 39 Steps) as Shackleton and Elliott Ross (Admissions) as The Stowaway, Andy Dickinson’s two-hander follows the real-life duo as their expedition to Antarctica aboard the Endurance goes spectacularly awry.
