Accidentally Waiting To Happen
This show is described as an explosion of live music, movement, whispers and feathers telling a breath-taking story of intertwined bodies and hiding places.
With taped music, whispers, hiding places, movement and loads of feathers, it just didn't live up to my expectations. When you are eventually drip fed the plot I had almost given up bothering. The slow deliberate movements although technically difficult and probably very good, along with the monotonous music, dim lighting and chaotic set just didn’t hold my interest.
Where the performers do put bags of effort in to both the performance and promotion of this show I almost wish I hadn’t bothered going to see it.
