Review – Soil & “Pimp” Sessions (Japan)
It all comes together in a fractured sort of way, a sublime nightmare.
It all comes together in a fractured sort of way, a sublime nightmare.
The manic oscillation between boisterous characters and uncouth narrator reflects the very unpredictable nature that is depression. It works, and it works well.
The tin can phone starts buzzing – the ringtone Loser by Beck – and our Bec answers, only to find her self-doubt loudly berating her on the other end.
The LEFT ensemble is bursting with energy and passion and the show is jammed packed with amazing routines, yet an edit of the weaker moments could see this show seriously fly.
The production seamlessly leaps through locales with each scene, and the bare bones set leaves the audience with no distractions from the cliché-free romance unfolding before them.
The whole ensemble are fit and talented, but what really makes this show one of the highlights of the Fringe is their charisma and chemistry – A Simple Space is a strangely life-affirming experience.
What’s most impressive about the show is Callan’s stamina. The man can actually pole dance. Legit. This is physical comedy, dancing steadily for over an hour, interspersed with shtick on the history of various choreography.
This show is creative, naughty and one not to be missed by anyone who is a fan of Game of Thrones.
Blood At The Root not only explores the impact of prejudice, but the expectations and burdens of racial and sexual identity themselves.
For those wanting to experience A Day in the Life of an era that so strongly influenced our culture, go along to this.
You know right from the start that it will be an epic, raucous, and always fun night.
