Co-created by Tracy Bourne and Michael Simic, performed by Mikelangelo.
Follow Mikelangelo, the Nightingale of the Adriatic, as he sails the wild seas with his trusty guitar, his booming baritone, and his sparkling accordion. On his adventures he encounters a beautiful mermaid in her underwater cave, a lonely ice queen in her frozen castle, and a huge Sperm whale from the darkest depths of the ocean.
Mikelangelo weaves songs and storytelling into a magical, mysterious voyage into the unknown. Full of laughter, imagination and unexpected twists and turns, this new solo show will captivate and delight audiences young and old, and everyone in between.
In the Belly of the Whale was created in collaboration with writer/director Tracy Bourne, who has worked on extensively in music theatre in Australia, including productions with Chamber Made Opera, Melbourne International Festival and the ABC.
Mikelangelo is the alter-ego of songwriter and creative dynamo Michael Simic. For 25 years, he has travelled Australia and the globe, as a solo performer, and fronting his long term group Mikelangelo and the Black Sea Gentlemen. He has packed venues and received critical accolades from the Sydney Opera House to London's West End, releasing 17 independent albums and building a worldwide following.

Traveling to Australia, this stop came to Hobart, the capital of Tasmania, specially came to Salamanca Square to punch in, saw this art center, seriously, if there is not a sign there, I really don&#39;t know it is an art center, nor see it. Walking in from under the signboard, there are a shop on both sides, and then going in, a bit desolate, although I saw someone walk in and go up the stairs, but I didn&rsquo;t see anything anymore, I&rsquo;m embarrassed to follow in, here should be similar to the domestic Children&rsquo;s Palace, Art Center, But it&#39;s much smaller.
