From the play by Orson Welles, adapted from Herman Melville

In 1954, while working on his starring role in the film Moby Dick, the great actor and director Orson Welles wrote a play based on Herman Melville’s novel. The play is set in a New York theatre where a company of actors are rehearsing a production of King Lear. One of the actors has written a play based on Melville’s book, and persuaded the company’s director to let him organise a read-through of the play.

We are opening On Land’s Edge 2026 with a staged reading of an abridged version of the play, using local actors (including some familiar faces in the twin towns). You will thrill as they conjure up the Pequod’s voyage on stormy seas, as the search for whales turns into a desperate hunt for one particular whale. Sail alongside the curious observer and story-teller Ishmael, the upright and conscience-driven first mate Starbuck, and the obsessive, terrifying Captain Ahab.

This amateur production of ‘Moby Dick – Rehearsed’ is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals Ltd. on behalf of Samuel French, Inc. www.concordtheatricals.co.uk

O'r ddrama gan Orson Welles, wedi'i haddasu o gyfrol Herman Melville

Ym 1954, wrth weithio ar ei brif ran yn y ffilm Moby Dick, ysgrifennodd yr actor a'r cyfarwyddwr gwych Orson Welles ddrama yn seiliedig ar nofel Herman Melville. Mae'r ddrama wedi'i lleoli mewn theatr yn Efrog Newydd lle mae cwmni o actorion yn ymarfer cynhyrchiad o King Lear. Mae un o'r actorion wedi ysgrifennu drama yn seiliedig ar lyfr Melville, ac wedi perswadio cyfarwyddwr y cwmni i adael iddo drefnu darlleniad o'r ddrama.

Rydym yn agor On Land's Edge 2026 gyda darlleniad llwyfan o fersiwn fyrrach o'r ddrama, gan ddefnyddio actorion lleol (gan gynnwys rhai wynebau cyfarwydd o Abergwaun ac Wdig). Cewch eich cyffroi wrth iddynt ddychmygu taith y Pequod ar foroedd stormus, yn chwilio am forfilod mewn helfa anobeithiol am un morfil penodol. Hwyliwch ochr yn ochr â'r sylwedydd chwilfrydig ac adroddwr straeon Ishmael, y prif fêt unionsyth a chydwybodol Starbuck, a'r Capten Ahab obsesiynol, brawychus.

Cyflwynir y cynhyrchiad amatur hwn o ‘Moby Dick – Rehearsed’ trwy drefniant gyda Concord Theatricals Ltd. ar ran Samuel French, Inc. www.concordtheatricals.co.uk
