  Come and experience a journey of self-discovery through fabulous 1980s-derived music, an epic original orchestral score, and thrilling dialog and narration! 
   In a complex web of relationships, Adam, a charismatic and independent man haunted by childhood insecurities, believes that he finds solace and strength in his quest to save the Guatemalan rainforest. Unbeknownst to him, his attraction and growing friendship with Josh, a hardworking yet insecure man longing for excitement and love, stems from those same childhood insecurities. Through their adventures, Adam and Josh slowly, find their strengths from within rather than from without. Josh's friendship with Em, his quirky, yet devoted friend and assistant secretly in love with him, offers a glimpse of unconditional care, while Tess, the radiant and flamboyant drag-queen guide, assumes a sage-like role, instilling confidence in their journeys. Meanwhile, Vi, the cunning CEO of DEJ, Inc., becomes entangled in a manipulative game with Lucas, a man relentlessly pursuing her. Amidst it all, Almi, the noble chief of a Guatemalan tribe, collaborates with "Save La Selva" (A charity focused on saving the Guatemalan rainforest and spirited by Adam), provides a bridge between worlds and reinforcing the importance of their cause. Through these intricate relationships, the characters embark on a path of self-discovery, ultimately finding the strength to confront their insecurities and embrace their true selves. Through it all, the epic and yet intimate songs (inspired by the fabulous 1980s) and musical score provide a soaring ride through the plot.

  In the Victorian age that great adventurer Phileas Fogg attempted to traverse the globe in a mere 80 days using only the existing transport infrastructure and his own nous.    
   
  Today the globe can be spanned much quicker and in more comfortable fashion but alas without much of the intrigues, stories and landscape that accompanied Mr Fogg and made the trip so exciting. 
   
  In this volume we have an answer: Let’s travel the globe with the words and verse of 80 esteemed and voluble poets.  Let’s explore places, peoples, philosophical musings on our world and all manner of things that Mr Fogg had no access to.  With the words of classic poets such as John Keats, Rabindranath Tagore, Du Fu and Edna St Vincent Millay as your companions it’s one heck of a journey.
