Fringelog 2008: Occupied
Wow, this was a really strange play. It was kind of a wildcard in my lineup, as it got mixed reviews and unlike most of the rest I went into it knowing pretty much only what was in the fringe guide description.
But I was impressed. It had pacing issues, and they could have tied a couple of plotlines together a bit better, but in the end it was good. I really liked that the (obviously) fake accent was a plot device, because otherwise I’d have been wondering why on earth they bothered.
I don’t think I’ve seen a lot of ‘twist’ plays that really worked at the Fringe in the past. This one pulled it off.
