Desperate to reconnect with his long-estranged daughter, he reaches out to her, only to find a viciously sharp-tongued and wildly unhappy teen. Big-hearted and fiercely funny, The Whale tells the story of a man's last chance at redemption, and of finding beauty in the most unexpected places. 2000912 https://padlet.com/2000912/pht7vyxh1n7kv2jh/wish/685832140 2020-08-18 19:20:03 UTC https://padlet.com/2000912/pht7vyxh1n7kv2jh/wish/685832140 Read this page first! 2000912 https://padlet.com/2000912/pht7vyxh1n7kv2jh/wish/685832142 Remember, drama/plays are ultimately meant to be staged--refresh your memory with this overview about drama]]> 2020-08-18 19:20:03 UTC https://padlet.com/2000912/pht7vyxh1n7kv2jh/wish/685832142 2000912 https://padlet.com/2000912/pht7vyxh1n7kv2jh/wish/685832144 2020-08-18 19:20:03 UTC https://padlet.com/2000912/pht7vyxh1n7kv2jh/wish/685832144
