Sucks your emotions out
Makes you question man’s capacity for evil
Relationships damn you?
Relationships redeem you?
The power of imagination
In the deepest darkness of a South American Prison, there’s the beauty of story with Aurora transforming the violence and filth of the cell into the glorious world of film, music, passion … redemption through love?
Did I LOVE it? YES!!!!!!!!!!!
Highlights:
- the talented Alexis Fishman transforming the brutal cell into glamour, dance, salvation
- James Lee’s moving portrayal of Molina
- complex direction by Stephen Colyer that seemlessly moved between characters, places
- complex musical direction by Craig Renshaw
- powerful production
The technical design and stagcraft were so well crafted in a limited theatre space.
Special appreciation to Jed Silver who did the sound design – he was also the sound designer on Monkey Baa Theatre’s production of ‘I Am Jack’.
It’s worth seeing- so much to talk about afterwards, to think about, to question.
Playing until Sun. 8 Aug 10
