Moby Dan is a clown play written specifically for the theatrical discipline of the red nose. Inspired by Herman Melville's epic novel, Moby Dick, and set in the local hall of a small town in the midlands, Moby Dan features a cast of four aspirationally challenged individuals and one inspirational hippy. Locked into the hall with a copy of the novel for one whole night, a group of unemployed misfits embark on an imaginary journey to capture Melville's monster.
