Culture Project in association with Elisha Wiesel presents And God Created Great Whales. The play is created, composed, and written by RINDE ECKERT, directed by DAVID SCHWEIZER, and performed by RINDE ECKERT & NORA COLE.
An extraordinary and haunting musical adventure into the psyche of a composer trying to create an opera based on Herman Melville's Moby Dick. Desperately fighting against a disease eating away at his mind, he is forced to rely on a tape recorder hung around his neck, each day pressing "Play" and hearing yesterday's instructions to himself.
Described by The New York Times as “an American loner-eccentric with touches of Bertolt Brecht, Samuel Beckett, and Tom Waits,” Rinde Eckert displays his full creative force in this frenzied, funny, romantic and moving play.
