The Duck Wife - FRINGE XX

The Duck Wife / La femme canard @ Tangente Venue #1. By Inertia Productions - Montreal. Brilliant! Manifique! A creative fusion of the elements of performance art melding them into one very moving and highly entertaining piece of bilingual theatre. Based on an Inuit myth as the tale unfolds about a hero in pursuit of his wife is brought vividly to life in an abstract with a touch of the absurd style, and yet with a thread of still subtle realistic fashion. Dance, live new age-rock music: both instruments and vocals, multimedia projections, eclectic colorful costumes, and powerful performances from a talented and agile ensemble make this production a sure fired hit. The 3 piece band on stage from Brooklyn, Grub Animal, known for their "new wave", hard core, rock styling fit right in interacting with the other performers, even getting into the act. Captivating from the first word uttered and the first move made to the last note played. Bravo! 5 cents. Dee Arr
