Moby Dick

Moby Dick

Work:: Moby Dick (S0652083038)

Re-live the great story on-board a ship in this classic seafaring story...the sailor's song from the crows nest is heard above; Captain Ahab's 'coffin tap' tread echoes on the decks beneath. The ghosts, the doomed Pequod's crew, rise from the hold. The harpooners recreate the horror of 'the last great hunt' as their voyage takes us deeper into a world of obsession, power and darkness. Music, magical visual image, and a dynamic storytelling style all combine in a ghostly performance within the atmospheric close quarters of the ship's aft deck auditorium.
Book by Hermann Melville

Production:: (T1015425507)

One of the world's great novels, Moby Dick, comes to the London Literature Festival as a stunning piece of minimalist theatre. Performed without scenery or props, with the simplest lighting, Ireland's Gare St Lazare Players present Herman Melville's classic novel about the wandering sailor Ishmael and his voyage on the whaleship Pequod, commanded by Captain Ahab. Along the journey, the great themes of human life are addressed.
