{FestivalCritic} Monday 28th June 2004
Wow! The brilliantly scripted play, combined with modern technology made this a play not to be missed. The strong acting from all three of the characters made the play realistic and helped the young audience relate to the issues brought up. The theatre company is based in Leeds making it quite local. By being local it has some idea of what is relevant to the local people. The set was electronic, making the play more exciting. The use of film and images of texts and emails added more depth to the play. The play was about communication and the lack of it between family and friends. The use of texts and emails showed the modern ways in which people communication. The overall message of the play was that people do not communication face to face anymore, losing the closeness. Marcia Banasko who played Chrissie is wonderful as the lead role. However, the play could not have been as strong without the supporting roles played by Amanda Healer and Fionnuala Dorrity. They all worked well together and this was seen on stage. The play had been on tour for 12 weeks, but the standard of the acting had not appeared to drop. Watch out for these three amazing actresses in the near future, because they are going to be big. Toni (16)
