In 1953 beekeeper Edmund Hillary and porter Tensing Norgay began a gruelling and treacherous ascent to conquer the summit of the world's highest mountain - Everest. Taking inspiration from Hillary and Norgay's biographies and the Oscar nominated documentary - The Conquest of Everest - Spike will re-tell the story behind one of the greatest achievements of the 20th century. Incorporating projected animation, puppetry, and a whole load of snow, two heroic performers will bring to life this epic tale of adventure, bravery and international fame.
