| Honestly, I didn’t care for it at all and have no interest in revisiting it. It’s all style and atmosphere and gimmicks, but really no substance. When I went - in 2016 or 2017 (can’t remember exactly) my impression was that most of the people in the ”audience” were only interested in spectacle. You need not have an attention span longer than a nanosecond to enjoy this. Things move quickly, there’s little story, and you walk around from room to room wearing a bird shaped mask in search of…I’m not exactly sure what. Walking into an empty room and finding some letters in a desk draw that don’t really make any sense isn’t my idea of a good time. Neither is walking around the space in search of a performance, that you may or may not find. It’s more frustrating than anything else. This was strongly recommended to me by an acquaintance who doesn’t like theater - and has never seen a play before. He loved it. Take that for what you will. Your mileage may vary. |
