Now before this sounds like a scorned woman, the show has been recieved really well but both critic and punter so I have nowt to moan about but this idea that everyone will love your work is silly.
I've been really excited to see that groups of students turning up to EYHO shows, on one hand this is abit annoying as this could mark our future as a Forced Ents set up but on another I remember seeing Shunts 'Dance Bear Dance' and having the doors of my brain kicked open to what performance can and should do, the same doors that opened last night to Luton's A level finest.
I'm overjoyed with Violence and the performers involved. I think its a bold and brave production for a neo-variety company to present that looks into a world of personal, political and parental violence without slapping you in the face with the 'issues'. As one drama student was heard saying '..its full of cliches' - without which we would have no anchor points in culture and those dreaded words .. post modernism. As I revel in my cliches here in a hot bubble bath in my council flat with painted nails listening to the Beautiful South, here is a lovely tweet from a punter...
Just back from a most moving
performance art piece. 'Violence' at Riverside Studios was like Sunkist
on a hot day in the 90's. Refreshing.
Violence runs until 26th November at Riverside Studios - More info here
