Science, history and adventure come together in this biographical musical, which tells the compelling stories of Tutankhamen, the "boy king" who ruled Egypt in the 14th century B.C.E., and Howard Carter, the archeologist who discovered Tut's tomb in 1922. The two men face politics, intrigue, disappointment and tragedy as they each seek to leave their marks on history in two very different worlds. Follow the journey of famous archeologist Howard Carter, as he uncovers the tomb of King Tut, the youngest Egyptian king ever! |
| "It was a thrilling moment for an excavator, to suddenly find himself on the verge of what looked like a magnificent discovery - an untouched tomb." When Carter uncovers the hidden tomb of "the boy king," a mysterious tale of political betrayal emerges. |
