Rose Painted Carousel

Boston Day 26

The highlight for today would be the Blueman Group. This was a performance with the cast all not speaking, but only using actions and movements to convey their thoughts across. I found this one of the most enjoyable things here in Boston and they really had some incredible moments.

This would be us, and the indoor theatre. The crew had lot's of gimmics in store and those rows of pipes there in the picture was really, luminous pipes when the show needed them to be. There were also ton's of toilet rolls hung on the ceilings for audience to pull and kinda make the ambience so crazy at the end of the show.

Besides being a very engaging show, the cast was also v professional and really maintained their character through the show. I particularly enjoyed sections when music was made with simple objects like pipes, gongs and drums, and then, be combined with the band playing to make it so 'rock'.

I loved the rock concert moves portion when they also got audience to move like the actions on the screens, when they used clay like paint to draw on glass, and also when there were luminous light sabres and displays of artistic moves on stage. Ahh.. worth the cost..

Anyway, after the show, we got on the front and took pictures outside and with the cast!

After which, it was sad, but we had to leave. So we all headed back to the Bolyston station and came across this funny school, ABCD University? What a joke.. but well..

Enjoyed the show and the streets at night. I was just glad that I was able to experience such a show, which I think would be rare in the Singapore context, or you could say, costly.
