Get Out Thursday: Fluke @ On the Boards

That's NYC experimental group Radiohole not Radiohead. We don't bait and switch here at Seattlest. Their show Fluke is an "enigmatic riff" on Moby Dick, says the NY Times, adding: "It has always been easier to like a show by Radiohole than to understand it."

On the Boards describes Fluke like so:

Inspired by Melville’s leviathan epic, Fluke tosses unlikely shipmates from Captain Ahab to Tokyo Rose around on a claustrophobic, spring-loaded, jury-rigged set that mimics a crowded boat at sea...Radiohole evokes 19th century spiritualism and then throws it overboard.

Closer to home, Brendan Kiley takes you backstage to the show's creation. It's some nifty writing. That's Melville's influence no doubt. He inspires that kind of thing.
