If someone reaches out to you–particularly someone you’re close to and whose taste you trust–says “this was one of the best pieces of theatre I’ve ever seen”, then you should go see said show. Pronto. No questions asked. Just go.
Realize that when someone reaches out and urges you to see something, that person is taking a risk. They’re putting their taste on the line. Reward their vulnerability by going.
Such was the case last week when a good friend reached out about a show called Iphigenia In Splott and said it one of the best things she’d ever seen.
So, I went last Friday.
I’m so glad I did (and that she reached out).
It’s a dynamite passion project. The acting (a one person show), writing and production elements are uniformly excellent. Here’s a link for tix/info. Some of the best ten bucks you can spend. Enjoy!
