It was fast-paced, impeccably performed, and infused with a genuine passion for theatre. The six actors who undertook way-more-than-six roles romped across that small space with energy and intensity. They were professionals who weren't afraid to work up a sweat and make the experience a memorable one for the 30+ students and 2 copywriters tucked into the basement performance space.
This isn't the kind of play you could bring to life half-heartedly anyway. There is obviously a lot of work that went into choreography and design and props. I was completely delighted from beginning to end.
It was a refreshing departure from the last few plays I saw at the Centaur - where the audience gave every performance (no matter how porous) a standing ovation and the performances were oftentimes... well, porous.
If you are not supplementing your culture with French-language theatre, you are depriving yourself of important nutrients that will enrich your brain.
If you don't believe me, read the review in Voir.
Oh, and did I mention that the actor playing Banquo was h-o-t?
