Maine's Capital Area

Moby Dick meets the Perfect Storm in this Blues Opera/Musical Theater production and inspirational tale of a fishing community’s daunting quest for survival and transformation in the face of the opiate crisis, and an epic confrontation with Captain Ahab and his destructive pursuit of Moby Dick.

Told through music, song, spoken word, recitative opera, movement, and spectacle, this epic tale of fishing, obsession, addiction and recovery calls for a reevaluation of Ahab’s vengeful attitude toward the White Whale and our own destructive relationship to nature, the environment and ourselves.

Featuring a live blues band, and a diverse cast of singers, musicians, actors and community performers (many in recovery) from Maine, New England, New York City, and Los Angeles, this exciting new production is not to be missed before it sets sail for the deep waters of historic New Bedford, MA—home of Moby Dick—and its final destination of New York City.
