Review: Public Theater's production is a fast-paced journey

Pittsburgh Tribune-Review: Contrary to the Cunard Line's oft-quoted slogan, getting there is more than half the fun of Pittsburgh Public Theater's "Around the World in 80 Days." Like its hero, Phileas Fogg, this production travels with a minimum of baggage. Playwright Mark Brown's stage adaptation traverses most of the same territory as Jules Verne's Victorian novel with five actors, a minimum of props, few chairs, circular staircase, back wall of versatile doors and cleverly painted floor that resembles a game board.
