A day of contrasting experiences at the theatre on this day Before The Lockdown:
But, since I started going to the theatre regularly, I've come to appreciate that there is a place for stories told through music and they're not all madcap song and dance fests.
However, Oklahoma! was surely a perfect example of all the things I hated about 'traditional' musicals but I thought I should at least give it a chance. It wasn't overly expensive and I really should base any opinion I have on fact, so I handed over the money and went along to the Theatre Royal Bath.
Somewhat annoyingly, I did actually rather enjoy it! The characters were believable, the story arc made sense and the whole production was very polished. Sure, the songs were cheesy, but once I settled into the rhythm of the thing I did find myself smiling along with the rest of the audience and quite enjoying it.
For sure it's still not the sort of thing I would rush out to see but as a fun and entertaining way to spend a couple of hours ... oh, why not! 😀
They had been running for years but I had somehow not realised what the Bristol Old Vic Theatre School Directors' Cuts season was about. It wasn't until 2017 that I recognised what I had been missing out on! I could, perhaps, have chosen a simpler and more explicable production than I Am The Wind at the Wardrobe Theatre in Bristol for my first experience of a Directors' Cut.
A mysterious Norwegian play with just two characters, The One and The Other, on a boat looking inside themselves and out at the sea around them trying to come to some sort of philosophical comprehension. Often talking to themselves rather than each other, we are never quite sure why they are there or what their relationship is.
I can't tell you what it was actually about, or what conclusion was reached (if any!) but I loved the way ideas were played with; as words, and silences, were used to precise effect that kept me enthralled throughout.
As much as I enjoy being uplifted by joyous shows, or simply amused and entertained for an evening, I really love watching plays about ideas, and existence, or simply the beauty of language as it expresses human emotions. This was certainly one of the latter, a rewarding, if baffling, experience.

I've hated musical films for as long as I can remember - all thigh-slapping gusto and ludicrously overt smiling and screwball choreography. No, I wanted realism and emotional depth.But, since I started going to the theatre regularly, I've come to appreciate that there is a place for stories told through music and they're not all madcap song and dance fests.
