What I liked
The perfect marriage of script and choreography. I couldn’t tell if the choreography worked around the script or vice versa. And the sound and lights were so effective in enhancing the story and aesthetic of the piece. It just keeps getting better from when I saw it at the Bootleg Theatre a year ago.
What I didn't like
Can I get up on stage and dance with them next time?
My overall impression
It is storytelling unlike anything done before. You think you know musical numbers, you think you know movement-based theatre, you think you know instrumental work on stage. And then Theatre Movement Bazaar strikes again! This piece takes everything you know about the legendary literature of Arthur and the grail and turns it on its head and asks “what if”. It takes all preconceived notions and throws it out the window, and makes fun of themselves with cliches and spot-on humour. This is progressive, one of a kind art. There wasn’t an ounce of this show I wasn’t entranced with. The actors all so specific with their own characters made such a seamless ensemble. It’s no wonder this show received all the accolades that it did. I don’t need to go on, go see it, the genius of Kronis and Alger will speak for itself.
