Theater review: RAOUL

November 12, 2010

My review of James Thiérrée’s Raoul at the BAM Next Wave Festival has been posted online at CultureVulture.net. I was a big fan of Thiérrée’s previous show at BAM, Au Revoir, Parapluie.

“As nonsensical as its title, that show was a completely delightful, non-narrative nouveau-circus piece in which five superb performers (including Thiérrée, who conceived, directed and designed the production) ceaselessly transformed the stage space, themselves, their costumes and props every minute of the show, going back and forth between silly and magical, literal and symbolic…[Raoul is] much smaller and less magical than its predecessor.”
