Ishmael- John Drainie, Captain Ahab- Lorne Greene, Mr. Starbuck- Budd Knapp,
A radio adaptation of Herman Melville's classic story of blind revenge, symbolism and bitterness. Consumed by insane rage Captain Ahab (Lorne Greene) is on a quest to Kill Moby-Dick, the Great White Whale that disfigured him. The intensity and anguish of this spectacular retelling of the epic tale come alive in this 1949 tour de force radio play.
