Based on Jules Verne’s 1870 classic, 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea, this traveling exhibition brings to life the deep-sea adventures of Captain Nemo, his fantastical Nautilus submarine, and the mythical world he inhabited.
At the center of this fantasy world is the giant Nautilus where visitors can climb aboard and discover the inner workings of a deep-sea vessel. Take up the controls at the helm, look through periscopes, crank the propeller, test out the bunks, and explore Captain Nemo’s Cabinet of Curiosities, full of incredible marine specimens.
The exhibition presents fantasy and facts, allowing visitors to explore Verne’s imaginary world and the real-life wonders of ocean exploration. Designed to provide a range of interactive experiences, the exhibition includes full-body interactions, mechanical and electro-mechanical exhibits, interactive projections, touchscreens, and more.
