In February, James May unveiled his latest television production titled “James May’s Great Explorers” on Channel 4. This factual series followed May as he retraced the voyages of historical figures such as Christopher Columbus, Sir Walter Raleigh, and Captain James Cook. Now, May is adapting parts of this show for a live stage performance called “Explorers – The Age of Discovery.
Explorers: The Age of Discovery” is an engaging live performance that will vividly portray the tales of remarkable explorers – individuals who traversed deserts, conquered mountains, delved into space, and navigated oceans (definitely more daring than most of us!).
Among the explorers whose stories will be told are Lief Erikson, John Cabot and Gertrude Bell.
The Top Gear host mentioned that he will be hosting his new Explorers show live on Instagram, reaching audiences in Australia, New Zealand, and Singapore. The topics range from primitive hunter-gatherers to modern-day astronauts, with the presenter himself included in the discussion.
As a movie enthusiast, I’m thrilled to share that tickets are now available for May’s screenings in Australia, New Zealand, and Singapore. If you happen to reside in these parts of the world, consider yourself fortunate! For my fellow fans in the United Kingdom, mark your calendars as we’ll be releasing pre-sale tickets towards the end of April. Stay tuned, UK folks!
