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 progressi...

Fantastic play.
Incredible casting. Not only do many of the cast members have the fortunate perk of resembling their real life counterparts, every single performer was excellent.
The already great cast has a compelling script to work with, and one can only assume solid direction guiding it all.
Funny where is should be, captivating when it needs to be serious. The play understands what it wants to be and the team involved has brought that vision to life....

A crisp and empathic script expertly performed by two precise, present, and generous actors. A lovely encounter that offers laugh out loud moments, tenderness, and the warmth of hope. It's so easy to fall in love with Andrew and Carol, and walk out with a little more compassion for everyone, including yourself....

One of the things I dig about theater as a medium is it not only allows artists to go for it in terms of concept and execution, but it encourages it. There's a place for kitchen sink drama or Mamet style biting dialog, but theater can also do away with the hand rails entirely. Instead of an answer, it can reframe the question.
Start swimming is an exercise in just that. Through the self described Pavlovian rewards and punishments, answers become meaningless and arbitrary. You are on or off, yo...

I have seen a ton of magic shows in my short time on this green earth, and I saw Princess Magic at the Magic Castle (she was turning tricks out by the smoking section), and this show can only be described as a genius reinterpretation of the art of magic. A funny and snide slap in the face of the pretentious David Copperfield types, this show will have you laughing, crying, and swearing all at the same time. ...

A cool take on the idea of a couple fated to remake their love story over and over again throughout generations. What the audience knows and can believe is nicely handled, when a play can make give you a story and then give it to you again with a new lens it can be pretty satisfying and this does that well. The two actors have great timing and physicality while still essentially having an admittedly awkward conversation....
