{FestivalCritic} Friday 2nd July
When the lights went down to signal the start of the performance I did not know what to expect, but was willing to keep an open mind. However, when the female singer started to sing it suddenly became clear that it was foreign. I have some experience of different languages but it sounded like moans and after a while she began to sound a bit hoarse, but I probably would too if I had been singing for an hour or so. Nevertheless, accompanied with the fantastic dances and strange instruments it worked well and I could imagine the feelings expressed. At moments in the performance if you closed your eyes you could picture the waves as they break etc. To begin with the background looked very plain as it was just white. Nonetheless, when a different dance took place a different moving background appeared. It made an old fashioned dance modern for a new audience. I believe it did this successfully. Overall this performance was truly amazing and I would recommend people to go see it as soon as possible. It really does live up to its reputation. Toni (16)
