Why hasn't anybody reviewed this show?! Roullette Theater is an amazing
troupe. I've seen them twice before and was made an instant fan, so when
I saw they were part of the fringe I had to check it out. They are fairly
new, and it's just a matter of time before they gain a faithful following.
The group has such great chemistry, and I couldn't believe how well they
listen and work with each other. At first, I felt the music was too loud
and I missed some of the dialog. But then to the audience's major delight,
they incorporated that fact into the scene and it was freakin' hilarious.
Just proves how in tune they are with each other and the audience. I have
to give major props to the keyboardist because he set the mood and genre
perfectly for each scene, especially the mummy scene. And I didn't even
notice the lighting guy because he so seemlessly worked it, I took it for
granted that he was working on the spot too. Each player was expert at "finding
the game within the game". Th!
e long form story became a little muddled and I was worried how they were
going to wrap it all up. But in the meantime, I did that laugh-so-hard-I-have-to-throw-my-head-back
thing; I love it when I throw out a suggestion that doesn't get used, but
then someone actually remembers it and incorporates it into the scene. It
was so brilliantly done that the actors had to just stop and let us finish
hooting. There were some great accident one liners that tumbled out, and
because they weren't trying to gag us with funny, it just was. (Favorite
line of the night, Mummy: Do I look as good as before Christ?") I loved
how well they reincorporated little bits of the story, what a great call
back memory! This troop works really hard without looking like they're working
hard. I love them! I wish I could describe more of the show, but you just
had to be there, so GO AND SEE THEM!
