Game show
The Game show really moulded everything together - without it, the performance would of been dull and bland. By bringing in the audience straight into the show and getting them to roll the dice was really effective, straight away the V effect was in use!
The cards for the Plebs and Rich men are hilarious and have this, ironic sad but funny element to it - the fake audience (performers) can really over exaggerate the sounds they make as they come in to make it even more effective! Just to have this build up of noise and commotion and to keep the atmosphere high. Such a good section! Everyone in that scene when rehearsing is just so committed to their characters - really over plays them!
and the Price
The price is a difficult but interesting play - everyone becomes the isle is a good use for the whole cast and fits well with the changing from the end of Indulge, when everyone is marching, to the opening of the Price. The cashier's monotone voice builds this suspension and I believe this will irritate both the audience and characters. The play is very shocking and I think, because the way it is written and the fact that the characters are very casual about buying a dead baby it really works. I think this is a good use of "slap and tickle".
