The premeire of Wailsong, a new play by Julia Smith and directed by Molly Greenwold, will be performed at The Tank in the 98-seat theater on July 23, 2025 at 7:00pm.
The crew of a whaling ship hurtling through a polluted ocean finds themselves hunted by something they don’t fully understand. As the days wear on, the crew’s tenuous loyalties (and sanities) dissolve while the beast grows steadily hungrier. Wailsong is a surreal short eco-horror play, a comedic mini-musical, and a faint cry in an unfathomably large ocean.
