The View
My favorite island Kingbaby Theatre Company has a new play out, “The View”, and it’s hilarious. It’s centered around two couples, one is the sterotype of the outdoorsman and new age chakra wielding woman and the other is the type that sleeps on Bowen Island and spends the most of the rest of day on the continent or on the ferry in their expensive automobile.
The plot concerns a tree that has a name, the view it’s blocking, and whose view that is. It’s billed as a ’supernatural sex farce’, and it is definitely an ‘adult’ play complete with blue language and not so subtle references and gags.
Great way to spend a Satuday night, saw a lot of teary eyes from laughing so hard when the house lights came up:-) Although this play might not have the over-all appeal of something like the Christmas classic Mad Mabel, it’s sure to come back for another island run as a favourite.
