Motorists in Liege, Belgium were stunned to see a sperm whale being transported on a flatbed truck, The whale which appeared to be smiling was being delivered to Liège Theatre as part of the stage dressing for their presentation of Herman Melville’s classic whale tale Moby Dick.
The theatre posted an image on Facebook with the caption:
“If you’re in the neighbourhood come take a look at this strange delivery… A whale in a theatre, really?!”
Melville’s 1851 literary classic is narrated by a sailor called Ishmael and tells the story of the obsessive quest of Captain Ahab for revenge on Moby Dick, a white whale which on a previous voyage destroyed Ahab’s ship and severed his leg at the knee.
