A puppet epic on a grand scale, The Ice King weaves a gothic allegory of hunger and hallucination. The events take place in the dread wastes of the Canadian Arctic, where the Franklin Expedition of 1845 has become locked forever in the ice. Insanity brews in the stew; Murder trudges, circling, in the eternal night; Starvation rumbles in sailors’ bellies. The captain is lost to this world, and the sun will not rise.
