Bomb
2025 Edmonton International Fringe Theatre Festival

Bomb, is in Walterdale so has more thrust stage so I might not have been in the best seat since it was a sold out show. I could see the glare of the overhead light in an overshadowing way (pun unintended). I also found the use of the overhead projection of the images and text too quick to really be able to read or absorb. I also found that ‘static?’ effect very distracting. There also seemed to be some sound effect and transition noise that did not have to include beeping.

I also found the show very sexualized and I did not think this was necessary. However, I enjoyed the imagery of a bomb in my stomach and building up. I thought this visual was well done. This is the type of show that will make you think and instigate interesting conversations after watching.
