Written by Brett Epstein (from #HFF14's smash hit "WOMEN"-- Top of Fringe, Best in Fringe Comedy), #WhaleFail is a deep, dark comedy inspired by the 2010 SeaWorld tragedy which rocked the nation.
#WhaleFail features Fringe veterans Clayton Farris [#HFF15's "Max & Elsa"- Nominee Best in Fringe Comedy] and Sherry Berg [#CapFringe15's "Girl Versus Corinth"]
Ivy Monroe was Ocean Planet's #1 whale trainer...until she was eaten alive by the very whale she trained.Ivy's peppery surviving sister teams up with a shy whale trainer to take down Ocean Planet. Meanwhile, the smooth-talking Director of Operations is dead set on keeping America's favorite marine park afloat.
Who is to blame for this colossal #WhaleFail? Decide for yourself. This summer. Only at Hollywood Fringe.
#WHALEFAIL: Part comedy. Part drama. Part whale murder mystery. Not everything is black & white.
#WhaleFail was an OFFICIAL SELECTION for TDB Beta Series in New York City, supported by the DRAMATIST GUILD FUND. It was also an OFFICIAL SELECTION for the Bristol Valley Theater NEW WORKS INITIATIVE.
