It's 1850, and a marvellous international exhibition is being
planned in Paris. The publicity agents claim that this exhibition
will be so fascinating that a whale has swum all the way up the
Seine to see it. Not likely? Well, Sylvie, from a small country
village, decides to go and see for herself. Along the way, she
tumbles through a series of crazy adventures, because everyone, but
everyone , has some sort of interest in this exhibition. Especially
a notorious gang of crooks that wants to steal one of the prize
exhibits, the fabulous crown jewels of an Indian Raja. A lot of
people end up looking for Sylvie : the gang, the cops, two
fanatically comical detectives, and an assortment of
larger-than-life characters. Also looking for Sylvie is her
admirer, Emile, who flatly doesn't believe there is a whale, but
has a very good reason to hope that there is one. Can the
twinkle-eyed Captain Duval supply the necessary whale, all in the
name of love? This material is free of any royalty obligation for
use by schools and amateur dramatic groups. It may be produced on
stage, used for play-reading, or simply read for fun.
