» Review: The Texas Tenors

Reviews: August 25th, 2010

Who said the Americans can’t make cheese? They certainly can. That said, this particular cheese would benefit from a little more processing and some maturation. But behind the glitz The Texas Tenors are three men with great voices and great charm. They seduced the audience, even me, and I enjoyed most of their set, excluding a few clumsy operatic arias. But there was good harmony work and a few excellent country songs that really worked. ‘Shenandoah’ was superbly rendered but perhaps that stood out as the band, a shoddy and amateurish outfit, did not play.

Geurts’ fascination with the dynamic properties of materials extends to finding the ‘tipping point’ – the point at which the whole piece may fall over…

» Review: The Edinburgh Festival Fringe

Reviews: August 23rd, 2010

The Edinburgh Festival Fringe is a massive, sprawling monster, showcasing the great, the good, the bad and the downright evil to the cultural masses, be they television executives or ordinary punters. So naturally the creative types of Brighton and East Sussex have been up there in force.

Local boy Seann Walsh’s first solo show is selling out over at the Pleasance Courtyard, with his observational humour very successfully hitting a chord and garnering him more and more attention. The way that he throws himself physically into the show, acting out some of his gags, provokes an equal level of engagement from his audience with their laughter.
