A group of castaways in the South Pacific discover Captain Nemo—long thought dead—still haunting his now-crippled Nautilus.

The play chronicles the interwoven histories of Professor Morgan Aronnax, a woman who has hidden her gender from the public at the behest of the French minister of science, and Nemo, as they voyage beneath the world’s oceans to the unclaimed tundra of the South Pole.
