Welcome back!
(Wow sorry This post took so long)
Looking back on a play is always a pleasant experience. Whether I enjoyed a show or not I always love looking back on them and remembering all the good bad and the ugly of show. I enjoy in a lot of shows each year so the highlight reel of my memory of each is only the scenes that truly captivated me with either how good or bad they were.
One scene from Colony of Unrequited Dreams that I remember clearly as if it were yesterday is the war of the written word scene, in which Smallwood and Feilding dance with word as their swords. The stage was bathed in yellow light and fog. the two began on opposite sides of the stage sitting at their desks and recited the articles they were writing. they steadily pick up in intensity. They circled each other until they met center stage. The scene was captivating and so unique in comparison to the other stage arguments I've seen.
The true mark of a show is it's lasting effect. This one showed me something I had never seen which means it will be remembered.
Thanks so much,
Elyse
