Rehearsals will take place on Sunday 1 November

The Dukes Theatre is on the lookout for singers to take part in a new show that's coming to Lancaster as part of a national tour.

The Creative Learning Department are looking to bring together a choir of at least 30 singers to take part in Spymonkey's Moby Dick.

Rehearsals will take place on Sunday 1 November, with performances on Thursday 5 - Saturday 7 November.

The choir will play an invaluable part at the end of the show.

Fate and obsession

Four actors find themselves trapped in the belly of a literary monster in this mis-telling of Melville's epic novel.

As they ponder the irony of their fate they recount the story of Moby Dick - with their own fantastical flourishes. The novel's epic examination of good, evil, fate and obsession is lost on them. And then, mysteriously, found on them again.

Anyone interested in being involved are asked to email Louie Ingham for full details.

There are a number of free tickets for the production available for anyone under 26 as part of the A Night Less Ordinary Scheme.

There will also be a post-show talkback session with the cast after the performance on Friday 6 November that is free to ticket holders. See the Dukes website for more information.
