The action begins in fear and frenzy when the Polestar suddenly goes dark. Then the chorus sings the back-story to the ensuing musical drama. (Orchestration by Michael Starobin.)
Jack's Star Path
With a special staff that orients to True North, and guided by other stars and constellations, Jack Bigabee describes the path he will take to reach the darkened star.
Carried Away
Jack’s admirers, Sophie and Celia, reveal their profound feelings when they first met him.
(Orchestration by Michael Starobin.)
Big Love
In this rousing number, the Whale sings about Big Love. With a heart as big as his, he should know! Other characters — Sophie, the Captain, and the Gambler — complete the ensemble.
Special thanks to our vocalists: Jenny Lindsey (Soprano), Deborah Tranelli (Mezzo-Soprano), Jordan Stanley (Tenor), Christopher Nolan (Tenor) and Doug Shapiro (Bass).
