"You will go to the end of the earth to find theatre this rewarding."
The Australian

Tom Crean (1877­–1938), an intrepid Antarctic explorer and one of Ireland’s unsung heroes, is brought to life in this critically-acclaimed solo performance by Aidan Dooley. Hear the riveting true stories of Crean’s explorations as one of the few men to serve with both Captain Robert Scott and Sir Ernest Shackleton and to survive three famous expeditions: Discovery (1901–1904), Terra Nova (1910–1913), and Endurance (1914–1916). Crean’s story is a testament of human fortitude against the elements of Antarctica, and Dooley’s “words create adventure that’s just as vivid as the special effects in a Hollywood bonanza.” (Variety) With over 1000 performances worldwide, Dooley has won numerous awards since premiering this role in 2003. You will go to the end of the earth to find theatre this rewarding.” (The Australian)
