SPYMONKEY'S MOBY DICK

Spymonkey’s Moby Dick is a glorious mis-telling of the Herman Melville novel. Four actors find themselves trapped in the belly of a literary monster. Will Ahab’s thirst for revenge be unhinged by the well-meaning but staggeringly inept attentions of his crew? Now that he has found true love, is Ishmael still fated to be the sole survivor of the Pequod? What does a Bavarian cannibal harpooneer eat? And how does a mermaid figurehead get pregnant?

Spymonkey’s award-winning brand of comedy is a 21st Century mix of Monty Python, Marx Brothers and The Goons, overflowing with brilliant characters, visual humour, slapstick comedy and outrageous naughtiness that has delighted audiences around the world.
