Fringelog 2008: Gordon’s Big Bald Head
I was groaning when the play they picked out to spoof/do their own version of was some opera at a BYOV. It seemed unlikely that this would go well. But it definitely did go well and it was pretty hilarious. Best parts I can think of:
- Discussion about thought bubbles/comic-book-style emotion signs (question marks, anger vibrations, etc) coming off the characters’ heads.
- The crazy twisted woman-murders-everyone plot they came up with.
- The use of a lesbian affair as part of said plot (in an improv done by all men)
- General hilarity
I don’t usually go in for improv, but the two I’ve seen this fringe have been really good. One of the guys from Rocket Sugar Factory was also in this one.
