It was an engrossing multimedia performance that showcased the musical talents of Silkweed, but also demonstrated they knew how to tell a story. <br /><br />The audience on the night I saw the show were taken on a journey and were enchanted by the combination of images, narrative and original music. <br /><br />Whilst Silkweed come from a musical background the addition of Sarah, the actor who played Lady Jane Franklin appeared to encourage the musicians to try out their acting skills also. <br /><br />This enabled the musicians to play with the narrative structure in their roles- for example as Jane' sisters. In doing so, humour was brought to a show that did not always offer a pretty picture of Tasmania.<br /><br />The combination of projected images, music, and narrative worked to offer the ensemble opportunities that show cased individual talents and also demonstrated their cohesiveness as a group.<br /><br />There was always something to watch and listen to, but it would have been easier if the performers could have been seen clearly all the time. They really needed a stage, or raked seating for the audience, preferably at a venue designed for such shows. <br /><br />However, the sound mix was good, even if the heads in front of us interfered somewhat. And that criticism aside, it was a real highlight of the conference for me.churchstudiofranklinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13998505297010772914noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4488457285399174262.post-38266153550209118022010-08-28T17:06:45.309+10:002010-08-28T17:06:45.309+10:00very intriguing overview.the journey was as compel...very intriguing overview.the journey was as compelling as the destination.<br />A writer with an artist's imaginationAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4488457285399174262.post-24835228633224399212010-08-28T15:47:02.232+10:002010-08-28T15:47:02.232+10:00Hey Wendy, reading your blog like I said I would!...Hey Wendy, reading your blog like I said I would! :)<br />Can't believe I missed WeTube but I'm sure you will fill me in on what happened.<br /><br />Sara, :)Sara Wrightnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4488457285399174262.post-41274198948433496212010-08-28T15:45:40.460+10:002010-08-28T15:45:40.460+10:00apologies to all those who i scared with my scream...apologies to all those who i scared with my screams :) it was an amazing experience and I am glad you enjoyed it!pyjama girlnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4488457285399174262.post-55628307564509172872010-08-28T11:32:23.130+10:002010-08-28T11:32:23.130+10:00We saw this show last night ....I think it was the...We saw this show last night ....I think it was the second performance...and were totally mesmerised!!<br />the music was FANTASTIC and the story totally compelling....apparently these guys are touring later this year....I say, catch it if you possibly can!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4488457285399174262.post-67171430401053621552010-08-27T21:08:40.984+10:002010-08-27T21:08:40.984+10:00Thanks for promoting the screening.
