A stage is set for a performance of King Lear. However the actor-manager has something else in mind - for his cast to do a rehearsed reading of Moby Dick.
The TV critic for the Sydney Morning Herald called it "very exciting television... Ken Hannam's production was compelling and always visually interesting, especially in the use of focus."[4]
The Canberra Times called it "a fine actors play, but, let us face it, a pretty boring one" but praised the work of Wynn Roberts and Patricia Connolly.[7]
