Moby Dick Meets The Perfect Storm. In a tale that stretches across generations and ancients—lost mariners, lost souls, lost lives—The Moby Dick Blues is a working-class opera about a New England fishing community’s daunting quest for survival and transformation.
Playwright Michael Gorman’s monumental new work calls for a reevaluation of Ahab’s vengeful obsession with the White Whale, and our own destructive attitude to nature, the environment and ourselves.
Told through lyrics and live music that span the spectrum from traditional blues, spoken word, rap and rock, this immersive theatrical experience is the product of a six-year developmental journey deep into the heart of the opiate crisis in the commercial fishing community.
