Anyone experience any play like this one?
It's basically a play performed by a group of blind actors, where they make the theater completely pitch black. And i mean COMPLETELY. THey don't even let you see when you are taking your seat, they guide you to it. And it's not a regular theater, there are basically chairs grouped around an open space. Where the actors will use to move around, sneak behind you and play with sound and distances.
You lose all your visual bearings and the play is acted out relying heavily on sound, with a little bit of smell and touch.
During a scene inside an office, you could smell coffee. Hear typing all over the room and the actors walk around the space completely fucking with your mind. It's amazing.
One of the scenes involved a beach and another one a chinese jungle. Rain, swimming, animals, they were all recreated and you have to imagine the story and what's around you.
The most beautiful moment was when taking a walk at night through the jungle, they arrived at a lake and there were dozens of fireflies. They had water running, wind sound, animal sounds and little lights that they moved around that looked like the fireflies.
A really amazing experience. I fully recommend it if anyone's got the chance of going to one!
