Theatre, like most things in life, can become the subject of repetition and become very boring. MOBY DICK at the Alliance Theatre is not an example of this, however. Starting in Chicago at the Tony Award-winning Lookingglass Theatre, this innovative, artistic work of art is not quite what you would expect. Director David Catlin adapted the piece initially with Lookingglass Theatre and The Actors Gymnasium.
