The Public Theater Welcomes
Clubbed Thumb’s
DEEP BLUE SOUND
By Abe Koogler
Directed by Arin Arbus
After last spring’s sold-out run of GRIEF HOTEL, the beloved downtown theater company Clubbed Thumb is back with their Obie Award-winning DEEP BLUE SOUND for a limited engagement.
On an island in the Pacific Northwest, the community gathers to address the disappearance of the local orca pod. Friendships fray, tumors grow, new love blooms, wood is chopped, poems are written. The seasons change. Will the whales ever return?
Written by Abe Koogler (Kill Floor, Staff Meal) and directed by Arin Arbus (Frankie and Johnny in the Clair de Lune), DEEP BLUE SOUND will once again feature Tony Award winner Maryann Plunkett, who won an Obie Award for “her transformative, fearless, empathetic turn” in this “devastatingly beautiful play” (2023 Obie Committee). The cast also features Arnie Burton, Crystal Finn, Jan Leslie Harding, Mia Katigbak, Ryan King, Armando Riesco, Miriam Silverman, and Carmen Zilles.
