By far, one of the best shows I’ve seen in this year’s Fringe is Bourgeois & Maurice: How to Save the World Without Really Trying.
With new ventures taking La V out there, in the arts festival circuit this was a new move, with some seriously tongue in cheek acknowledgments of the (same) old material. The house was packed full of fans, who knew what they wanted, and weren’t disappointed. With a fan base of older gay men Brighton is a easy show to fill and folk were thrilled. There were more than a few local Drag legends sitting amongst the crowd and what bigger compliment is there than the Grand Dames of Drag sitting down to watch you shine.
It’s been quite a while since I’ve failed to connect with a show as deeply as I failed to connect with this one – it might as well have been performed in Lithuanian so little did I appreciate what was happening on stage.
La Voix brings her new show Red Hot Globe Trot to the Spiegeltent as part of Brighton Fringe. La Voix is a woman on a mission to bring back the glamour to stage and screen one town at a time! Brighton’s Turn is on Thursday, June 1 2017 !
An excellent hour of well crafted and seriously impressive skill.
Her music shouldn’t work, but how it does. Contradictory, clashing, cacophonies are all tied together with huge leaps of artistic faith, bridging gaps with harmonic reaches and plunging into the abyss with the rhythmic, percussive use of her Cello. She’s utterly nuts, and yet centred with a fearful modest simplicity. Go see her and be changed.
Although some of the narrative was lost in transit the show delivered an entertaining evening full of thrills and some moments of delightful oddness that warmed the audience up to a roaring handclapping appreciative finale.
Some folk write their own reviews, some folk are lucky to get one, some folk impress, Ms O’Sullivan deserves more than a good review, she deserves a love letter from us humble critics.
