Synopsis: | about the timber-farming industry on the coast of Maine. This description is from the advance materials: "Two carpenters stumble upon the occult publishing world of 'How To' books as they read a book called 'Stonework (Reflections on Serious Play and Other Aspects of Country Life)' to pass the time on a ferry boat ride from a remote island to the mainland. Their brutally satirical examination of the book leads to an exposure of the ridiculous pseudo-existential premise of several other books. . ..As the ferry boat churns closer to the mainland, a strange and disturbing alliance of 'How To' gurus, including Bob Vila and Ty Pennington, manifests itself to perform a series of rituals." | |||||

Synopsis: | The Honor and Glory of Whaling is the second play in a trilogy of plays that deal with the issue of addiction and recovery in the commercial fishing industry, inspired by the death of the playwright's oldest brother (a commercial fisherman) to a heroin overdose. The Honor and Glory of Whaling is an epic tale that follows the fate of legendary New England fishing captain Robby Foerster and his boat The Northern Star. In a community sorely in need of something to be proud of, stories of his reckless courage are a source of pride. After a fatal first encounter with heroin, the Great White Whale of the modern fishing community, Robby falls deeply into addiction. The Honor and Glory of Whaling explores the role of myth and storytelling as both a sustaining and destructive force in a Northeast coastal fishing community, engaging the audience in a dramatic critical debate as to what extent tragedy, held to be inherent in the fishing community, might be avoidable. | |||||
