[Rinde Eckert] plays a piano tuner named Nathan, who is composing an opera based on the classic novel. But just as Captain Ahab battled the great white whale, Nathan is battling his own leviathan. Nathan's monster is an unnamed progressive illness that is devouring his memory. And his fate, like Ahab's, is inescapable. The tape also introduces Nathan's most important aid - a woman (Cole) identified in the program as \"Muse\" and on the tape as \"a product of your imagination.\" The Muse prods Nathan to get on with his opera; she joins him in enacting various roles, and, when his mind wanders into the past, she assumes the added role of Olivia, a world-famous opera singer with whom Nathan was infatuated. As directed by former Baltimorean David Schweizer, Eckert and [Nora Cole]'s interaction varies from the playfulness of portraying the 19th-century sailors and seaside New England merchants in Nathan's opera, to the no-nonsense exchanges in which the Muse gently but insistently steers Nathan's meandering mind back on course.

A big, pale man with a shaved head, [Rinde Eckert] looks a little like Moby-Dick himself. The classically trained musician and opera singer plays Nathan, a piano tuner rapidly losing his memory to a degenerative disease. During the 75-minute show that opened its extended run on Wednesday night, we watch Nathan, along with the embodiment of his imaginary muse ([Nora Cole]), struggle to complete his opera of \"Moby-Dick\" before he loses his mind completely. The production incorporates music, dance and theater into a vibrant, lucid performance event. Cole makes an ideal foil for big, clumsy Nathan. Small and lithe, with a strong voice and an expressive body, Cole pokes, prods and inspires Nathan to action with affectionate seriousness. Cole also maintains a careful balance in differentiating the muse from her second role, Olivia, an imperious opera singer whose piano Nathan tunes.
