Barry & Stuart - 98% Séance (Edinburgh 2010)

Postby Mr_Grue » Thu Aug 19, 2010 9:30 am

I caught this show yesterday and enjoyed it. It's B&S's usual blend of magic and comedy, though, which didn't always sit well with the story they set out to tell. Also there is a Q&A-style section of the show which, although technically brilliant, made them hostages of fortune. On the day I saw it, the audience seemed a little flat and the nature of the information provided through the Q&A (I'm trying to avoid details here!) meant that this section of the show was largely confusing and low on content. That said the way in which the Q&A was run was novel and interesting, and made for a convincing display of mediumship. Cheeky as coitus method, too, if I'm not mistaken.

It's clearly the absolute opposite end of the spectrum to Mr Bell's séancery, but nevertheless they manage to make a very strong stage-show seance demonstration. Go see.

:D
Earlier in the year Barry & Stuart got in touch about attending one of my seances. In the end they couldn't make it due to their booking commitments, but now I see why they were so keen!!
