THE TAO OF EVEREST by IAN WOODALL

As the first rays of dawn crept across the Tibetan plateau, Ian Woodall stepped onto the summit of Mount Everest and into history, one of a select few to have climbed the world’s highest mountain by both its north & south sides. Using the power of emotional story-telling, Ian brings the triumphs and tragedies directly to his audience, in a fascinating and totally engaging performance.
