My overall impression

LIVE THEATRE BLOG is a great show. I’ve come to expect this from Coeurage Theatre productions. What I wasn’t expecting, however, was to take part in a experience that was so unique and challenging to the way I view theatre as a medium. MILK FROM STONE is a captivating script, and Devon Simonson delivers a commanding performance that is both bitingly funny and incredibly heartfelt. What really sold the project for me though was the scope of it. Knowing that my experience was being shared with complete strangers miles and miles away was truly amazing. This piece presents a fascinating possibility in the realm of theatre, that is the utilization and incorporation of live streaming. This show is undeniably moving, but more importantly it made me think, and, in my opinion, this is the greatest gift a piece of theatre can give us. MILK FROM STONE is most definitely a must-see for any progressive theatre goer.
