Soon after a baby is born in a small Arctic village, her parents learn she has an unusual destiny: In order to restore natures delicate balance, she will train her whole life for the honor of someday marrying a bowhead whale, leaving humanity and spending her adult life with her new mate. Torn between teenage rebellion, young love, and her innate desire to fulfill her prophecy, she is witness to the near-end of a species and the heartbreak that often comes with doing the right thing. Whale Song is a world premiere by Perseverance Theatre Playwrights Circle member Cathy Tagnak Rexford (Inupiaq).

Will he beat the odds and get the girl, or come up snake-eyes? Perseverance Theatre's musical dream team presents Guys and Dolls, the brash Broadway favorite based on the street-wise stories of Damon Runyon and featuring the immortal songs of Frank Loesser.
