With many silly songs, lots of salmon sushi, and a couple rounds of Seal Ball, "Orca" is a show that swims up from the oceans deepest depths, but is something we can all relate to here on land.

"Orca is me. Orca is everybody," says playwright, producer and performer Kyle Mazer. "I wrote this show to understand myself in the furthest thing from myself. There's no better place to bring it to life than the Barge, and no better person to do it than my good friend Dominic Sullivan."

Sullivan and Mazer are both graduates of Yale University and previously collaborated in the hit musical "The S.S. Cancelled," which won Best Musical Score at the New York Theater Festival in 2022, after developing at Yale University.

"It's a joy to get to perform in another one of Kyle's shows, and this is certainly a whale of a script" jokes Sullivan. "With my Off-West End contract starting in November, who knows when we'll get to work together again, so I look forward to making this one count."
