REDCAT will launch its dynamic and interdisciplinary 2012 Winter/Spring Season of visual, performing and media arts with the Los Angeles premiere of Rinde Eckert's mesmerizing epic And God Created Great Whales. Hailed as 'total magic' by The New York Times, this Obie Award-winning work of groundbreaking music-theater is a morbidly funny and deeply moving operatic journey into the psyche of an eccentric composer as he desperately tries to complete his final opus: an opera based on Melville's Moby-Dick. Performances will be held at the Roy and Edna Disney/CalArts Theater Wednesday, Janaury 25 - Sunday, January 29, 2011.
