When the Hollywood film production of ‘Moby Dick’ descends upon a small fishing town in County Cork, Ireland, the townspeople are both fascinated and frustrated by the disruption. Chaos ensues when the whale for the production (Moby Dick) goes missing! What happened to Moby Dick? A World Premiere play written by Irish playwright Sean Cooney.
Cooney’s script is much like a van Gogh painting. Some characters, like Erin, are created with intricate paintbrush strokes; others are fingerpainted in concentric circles.
“Most all of my plays happened in and around things in my life. People would say ‘Oh my God, Sean, what happened here?’ and I would be in the middle of it for some reason.” Sean Cooney
