Burn Blue
Different tales of women and their connections with the ocean. They created a wonderful show, with parts I laughed at and parts I was moved by. I loveddd the tarp that they transformed into such a believable ocean, and the mixture of puppetry and beautiful music/harmonies and movement. Unapologetically political
A must-see if you have ever felt a deeper connection with the bodies of water on this planet. And a great, honest approach when addressing the environmental emergency, without being too depressing or bleak. The stories shared in this show resonated so much with us, past and present. So creative, I enjoyed every minute. I felt so motivated and inspired by this show! Spoiler alert:
the whale was my favourite part.
Burn Blue, blending personal stories into ocean water issues, was unexpected touching, beautiful. Actors with all background including musics, poetry,theatre and dance, compose a joyful stream.
They weren’t fancy and that’s exactly what made me move, ponder.
Minimal equipment was all they needed as they themselves were the most valuable of all on the stage.
Everything was real, actors, their memories, their movements, their important message, their magic.
Exceptional choreography was only a part of their message. They cared about water and I was invited in that.
I had no choice but to remain amazed for a full hour. I hope everyone gets to watch Burn Blue, at least once.
