In the deep labyrinth of the Louvre, a museum curator is found viciously murdered. Alongside his body are a series of mysterious codes. In a race against time, it is up to Professor Robert Langdon, along with Cryptologist Sophie Neveu, to try and solve the riddles of the codes and the centuries-old mystery of the Holy Grail. With the help of teacher and friend Sir Leigh Tebing, Langdon and Neveu embark through the streets of Paris in hopes of deciphering the code before forces of darkness extinguish the historical secret forever.
Based on Dan Brown’s bestselling novel that sold nearly 100 million copies and was made into a major Hollywood hit film, this new stage adaptation takes audiences on a treasure hunt adventure that will leave them breathless!
