| Reviews: Time to turn off TV and tune in "PUTTING on a theatre performance is always a risky business. You don’t know whether the audience will turn off the telly and risk the chance of a wasted evening. Mouthpiece Productions remedies this by taking theatre to the people. It aims to take accessible, lively performances to rural venues around the Midlands. And it has certainly delivered the goods with its latest festival offerin – Ugly Art at the Chapter House in Worcester Cathedral. Set at a gallery opening, we view the tricky relationships of the characters as they react to pieces of modern art, of the “is it actually art?” sort, and their partner on stage. Strangers, husbands and wives reveal their relationships – some beyond hope of salvation, others just blossoming. The show was light, accessible and, above all, very entertaining. Sharp one-liners and great performances and enthusiasm gave the show vibrancy and zest.If you hear Mouthpiece coming to a venue near you, there is no risk of a wasted evening." (Sam Dansie, Worcester Evening News) "Ugly Art was quite fabulous. Great acting, no stage, nice people and a marvellous thoughful evening." (Audience Comment) |
