Not the Britney show I expected
I expected a big dance number and show, but was instead met with a single actor on a simple stage.
Theater
Megalomaniac theater: Lots of content, little weight
The Sisters is one of the biggest ventures of the theater season, but the brand new performance is a crumbly cake on stage, sprinkled with cream, jam and grandiose wishes.
Women are either obedient wives or witches
The performance HEKS shows the prejudices that all women faced during the Reformation, regardless of who they were.
What happens when the world's most boring person is stuck in the boiler room of a tanker?
Then little happens.
The man's life lie
The Wild Duck meets our contemporary world with humor, neon colors, and fragile masculinity.
The dresser is in suspiciously good shape.
At the Central Theatre, the shabby dresser is played with great emotion by an actor in his 30s. It does something to the play.
Thought-provoking
Mura gave me an impression of war and what it was like in the past. I thought it would be boring, but it wasn't.
I felt like giving a hug.
When theatre succeeds, you forget you're sitting in an auditorium, and this happens from the first line to the last applause in Anna Breaks. With a good balance between seriousness and humour, this becomes a theatre experience that is both engaging and touching.
Vulnerable
At first, Infinite Life seemed like something I could have done in my middle school art class. But without realizing it, I find myself sitting there with tears in my eyes, making eye contact with the actors on stage.
