DICK by Gwen Kingston

​based on the novel Moby Dick
by Herman Melville

In 1850, one man sinks an entire ship to settle a Moby Dick measuring contest. In 2022 an all womxn and non-binary cast battles thunderstorms, whirlpools, boredom and the occasional whale to resurrect the Pequod and ask: ...why?

​Thanks to a grant from the Lower Manhattan Cultural Council and a space residency at HB Studio, Notch was able to workshop a very early draft of DICK by Gwen Kingston. The workshop took  place over a week-long, community-engaged process and a culminating  on June 25th 2022.
