1953: Race for the Summit
Om Raj Raut (Nepal/USA)
‘Tomorrow is a big day. Our first attempt to reach the summit. That was
our plan, but mountains have their own plan.’ Set the night before
Tenzing Norgay Sherpa made history with Sir Edmund Hillary by becoming
the first people to reach the summit of Mount Everest, this one-man show
charts his thoughts and fears at the attempt ahead. He relives his other
attempts, hampered by avalanches and snowfall until the anxiety and
exhaustion transform into the exhilaration of success. Written and
performed by Om Raj Raut.
