Falling Awake
FOUR STARS | There's a layer of sadness even under the comedy in this largely wordless show
Rating:
Company:RAGMOP, Vancouver
Genre:Physical Theatre
Venue:2 MTC Up the Alley
A gentle treat for physical theatre fans, Vancouver's RAGMOPturn their considerable talents to creating a dreamlike world, where a woman encounters her late husband killed in an unfortunate accident involving an umbrella and lightning.
And indeed, there's a layer of sadness even under the comedy in this largely wordless show.
But blending dance, mime, mask work and even some sleight-of-hand, performers Matthew "Poki"McCorkleandNayanaFielkovshow off an impressive range of skills.
For physical theatre fans, patience is rewarded with a tender, graceful show.- Joff Schmidt
This isn't for everyone, though with a deliberately slow, dreamy pace, this show might test the patience of some.
But for physical theatre fans, patience is rewarded with a tender, graceful show.
