'Elegies
for Angels, Punks and Raging Queens' is a musical, which despite
being around for some time is neither often performed nor well
known. Part of the problem is the lack of any catchy refrains but
the subject matter has also lost some of its initial terror.
We
are inclined to forget the Aids HIV problem has not disappeared if
anything it is on the increase again. Elegies is a celebration of
those lost through the disease rather than a totally morbid
obituary.
Very
difficult to stage and decide what is in and what to cut, plus the
performance space has its restrictions. The Latymer Theatre company
performs it very sensitively, utilising their casts individual
talents and it is cleverly directed despite the obvious limitations in
the area.
