What I liked
I loved the simplicity.
What I didn't like
Les connects with his audience, which really engages us, but once in a while, the tickles and breaks him up taking him out of character. I believe he’ll incorporate it as he does the show more.
My overall impression
This play was hilarious from start to finish as it dealt with the dynamics of family relations. It is really about the strength of character of one person and how he, through his creative forbearance, enables a change in an otherwise very conservative situation. Very energetically portrayed as Les takes us through his uncomfortable situations, one after another, until finally the climax “Psycho” theme music, shows his self control as he calms and reclaimed himself. Very effective!
We walk with Les as he describes his escapes from an otherwise unbearable family situations and then finds himself surrounded by similar escapee’s, finally finding solitude in the natural beauty of Alaska. Very good job, well acted characters, funny and meaningful.
Thanks for the trip on the high seas!
