Fringe theatre is not to be overlooked!
We went and watched Bluets and I was so so impressed.
The actors were amazing I did not dislike any of them! They all had different elements that they added to the story even though they were all playing the same person. I also liked that the guy was included even though the narrator was a women (I believe). He was very very good I really enjoyed how much was happening in his head but how little was happening on his face. You really could tell that he was in it and I feel like I could read his thoughts. The girl in the middle (forgive me for not knowing names) was also so so good! I could tell how locked in she was the entire time, I feel like I never saw a slip of character once from her and my eyes were drawn to her. The girl on the right was also so good, she added a deeperness to the character I don’t know how to explain.
The production of this show was actually crazy. The use of TVs was to die for! It was so creative I really could not stop trying to pick out every little detail of what they were doing. Props to the stage hand that was switching everything around, she deserves her own standing ovation.
Truly though I was SO impressed by all of the thought that went into this show, the actors were moving so fast and so precisely to get all the right shots on camera while also delivering to the audience an in person show. So cool, I think that cameras in theatre are becoming more and more of a thing, Romeo and Juliet did that as well.
The story was kind of confusing to me, not going to lie I was super tired during it so didn’t follow it as well as I probably would have if I wasn’t so tired. But from what I did gather I thought it was very moving. It approached the topic a lot more differently than I was expecting which I really liked, the writing was so good.
Overall I was super impressed.
