Twisted

Our third 1st date anniversary was this weekend. We didn't really plan ahead, but wanted to see a play, as we try to make our custom. Jennifer gave me a couple of options on Friday and I picked for us to go to see Twisted Olivia which is playing at the Zach. It's a one man reinterpretation of Oliver Twist. Everett Quinton is a very versatile actor and brought many very distinct characters to life, but we felt the whole play was lacking. The setup for him to do Oliver Twist was just too contrived and there did not seem a reason for it (he could have come up with something that paralleled the story or one or more characters in it). Some of the effects were gimmicky and the overall flow was uneven. Still, it was cool to see how he transformed into different people, especially when he was doing a scene with two or more people in it.
