Staged Reading to Pay Tribute to Moby Dick
The Phantom Collective will present a staged reading of A Damp Drizzly November in My Soul: A Tribute to Melville's Moby Dick Monday night, November 11, at The Grafton Pub in Lincoln Square. The script was written by June Skinner Sawyers, based on Moby Dick by Herman Melville and Ahab's Wife or the Star-Gazer by Sena Jeter Naslund.
Si Osborne will direct the six Chicago actors who will perform the 90-minute production: Brad Armacost, Tony Dobrowolski, Gary Houston, Elizabeth Laidlaw, Bob Swan and Osborne.
Tom Kastle, a "singer, songwriter, tall ship captain, and teller of tales," will accompany the reading with maritime music from Melville's era, played on acoustic guitar.
A Damp Drizzly November in My Soul will be presented at 8pm Monday, November 11, at The Grafton Pub, 4530 N. Lincoln Ave. Tickets are $15 and can be purchased at the door (cash or check only). For more information, call 773-271-9000.
