Endurance: The Story of the Shackelton Adventure (2002)

A dramatic retelling in movement, song, and clever staging of Ernest Shackleton’s heroic 1907 adventure to Antarctica.

“It’s a hard rough life, marching and camping.
We don’t wash ourselves and we don’t change our clothes.
We don’t look back and we don’t wash the dishes.
We sleep in the snow, do the best we can.”

In short, it was good art and as a cultural production it provoked me well beyond the time spent in the theater. –Chris Hill, Curator
