Whale archiveFour whalers have themselves been eaten by their quarry. The irony! With the (im) patience of Jonah they await their disgorging. To amuse themselves they recount a story of Moby Dick, with their own flourishes. The novel's epic examination of good, evil, fate and obsession is lost on them. And then, mysteriously, found on them again. In this whale of a show there are barrels of comedy blubber, handy shanties, let's-get-jiggy jigs and the inevitable gatecrashers: a bitter and twisted Pinocchio used-to-wannabe, a cannibal harpoonist from Munich, L Wrong Hubbard, and four Ahabs destined for the West End.
