MOBY DICK
Ross Ericson's New Stunning Solo Performance
Adapted and Performed by Ross Ericson
Costume by Elizabeth Cooke
‘Call me Ishmael. Now it was some years ago – never mind how long precisely – when, having little or no money, and nothing in particular to interest me on shore, I did take it into my head to go on a whaling voyage…’
To celebrate the bicentennial of Herman Melville's birth in 2019 his classic tale of one man's obsessive hunt for the great white whale is brought to the stage in a stunning solo performance – so real that you'll swear that you can taste the salt on your lips.

Adelaide Fringe 2020 Review
'There are many story telling shows in this year’s Fringe, but this has to be one of the best.'
Brighton Fringe 2025 Review
'It seemed that for an hour we’d been in the presence of Ishmael himself, and had Herman Melville’s beautiful prose ringing in our ears... "Exhilarating"'
