[…] while the production accords the most serious fidelity to the novel Melville began to write in 1850, it is not without occasional humor and some 21st century references.

Set sail for a whale of a tale with young sailor Ishmael, first mate Starbuck, and Captain Ahab as they voyage across the seven seas in search of the legendary white whale Moby Dick! Three gifted actors use their bodies, ever switching hats, and a variety of musical instruments to create excitement and suspense. See how a double bass and cello personify everything from the creaking of the oars to the moaning of the hull, to the elusive whale himself! Brimming over with music, wit, and imagination, Moby Dick has been hailed by the New York Times as "a luminous and engrossing" theatrical event. |
