The possibilities are endless!
#projects//banterbury.tales.reviews
Well, I’ve found the first 2 reviews for ‘Banterbury Tales’, which finished up at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival in Edinburgh, Scotland last Sunday. I wasn’t sure quite what to expect, but the show got 4 stars! Great job by YTC and friends, it was an awesome experience which I’d be glad to produce again next summer. Anyways, one of the reviews was from an actual reviewer, and the other was by a performance-goer. Here’s a portion of the review article:
Banterbury Tales is not strictly theatre- most of the sketches would stand up alone, and some of the exchanges would work well in cabaret or burlesque. Their sheer force of will moves the show along at a steady pace, and the refusal of cheap audience participation gives them a harsh determination. The poetry itself is powerful and imaginative, working at the boundaries between the beat and the beat-box. There is something interesting happening in this meeting of media.
This passage was taken directly from the actual review, which appears in the british theatre guide. there was also another review from a patron on the ED Fringe official site. Again, great job from the people at YTC!
