Genre: Melodrama Characters: 12m, 2f
An ingenious idea is employed to accommodate the sweep of this classic story on the stage. A Shakespearean company puts down their rehearsal sides of Lear and curiously take up those of a new play entitled Moby Dick. On the rehearsal stage of platforms, the teasers overhead suddenly become yardarms with sails and a tall ladder becomes a mast. The platforms become the decks of the ship on which the cast sails through the storms and tribulations of the Pequod hunting for Moby Dick. Admirably bold and imaginative. - The New York Post An adventure in theatre going. As I left the first performance I felt myself rather oddly shaky and breathless.... There is nothing else anywhere near like Moby Dick in the theatre. - The New York Daily NewsMoby Dick - Rehearsed
