My overall impression
Most of us only know one side of Bonnie and Clyde. We know the outlaw side of them. We know how their story ends, but what we don’t know, is what leads up to that point. “Bonnie and Clyde” shows us the last day or so of their life. Bonnie (played by Claire Bronchick) shows us an innocence in a time of guilt. She loves Clyde (played by Joel Sutton) with all her heart and all she wants in return is some attention. Clyde has other things on his mind, like how copy cat crimes are being blamed on him. You witness the struggle of love and affection and even some sexual tension during their last few hours of life.
Clyde also narrates the last moments of their life in moments of flash forwards that really start to inch it’s way into the way you view the back and forth between them. You know what’s coming. He tells you, in great detail, those final moments and when we return to the conversation between the two, it makes you feel for them since they have no idea what’s about to happen.
The set was dressed so well and really added to the piece. There was a live music that added to the ambience and even serenity of the show. The actors were top notch and really pulled you into this. The dialog, the mannerisms, all of it, was delivered with perfection by Bronchick and Sutton.
