Shackleton was one of the principal figures in the age of Antarctic exploration and our story focuses on Shackleton’s amazing traits of leadership. In this heroic tale\, he brought all of his men back from 21 months of seemingly endless points of peril\, to survive against all odds. Musical selections from classical to 20th century orchestral masterpieces represent these leadership traits including a sense of purpose\, loyalty\, optimism\, flexibility\, ingenuity\, and responsibility. Audiences are given an immersive musical experience as they watch the story of Shackleton unfold through the series of scenes with both live actors on stage as well as original film footage captured by filmmaker and photographer Frank Hurley.  \nShackleton’s ship\, Endurance\, became trapped in the ice in January 1915 and remained stuck until October\, when the ice closed in and crushed it. Shackleton and his men then camped on the ice until April 1916 (for over a year!)\, when the floe broke up\, and they were forced to sail in three lifeboats to Elephant Island. Almost 500 days had passed since they had stood on dry land. At that point\, Shackleton and a few of his men made the 800-mile journey in a tiny boat\, the James Caird\, back to South Georgia\, where he got help and returned to Elephant Island to rescue his crew- and miraculously\, after nearly two years shipwrecked\, every single one of them had survived. \nThe Great Lakes Chamber Orchestra’s “Legends & Mysteries” educational concert series combines history\, music and so much more. The presentation of live video\, theater\, and exhilarating orchestral music truly illustrates associative learning by helping to connect ideas and experiences that will promote intellectual curiosity as the audience learns more about the music\, the history and the people who are involved in making both.
