  • Plexus Polaire, a French-Norwegian puppetry company, presents a captivating adaptation of Moby-Dick for the MimeLondon festival.
  • Director Yngvild Aspeli describes puppetry as a medium revealing the unseen, akin to a ouija board, enhancing storytelling while blending actors with puppets.
  • The production employs diverse elements, merging live music, video projections, and creative scales to depict the story's immense themes.
  • Aspeli emphasizes that puppets serve not as replacements for actors but as unique storytellers with distinct expressive capabilities.
  • Moby-Dick runs at the Barbican in London between January 22-25, with the festival starting on January 14.
