Our Trip to the New Victory Theater






This was a wonderful performance at the new victory theater. It was about an old man who went on a journey to find his at the end of the world. I think the actors were great because they are so into character. There were only a few actors but so many different characters. I think it is neat how they can play different characters. Also the show had instruments and singing so it's kind of like a concert. The old man had escaped his character to play the violin and then come back. In the end they got to answer questions. They did sound effects with their mouth blowing into bottles. Also someone asked how they met. They met as teenagers in Pittsburgh and became friend and did shows everywhere. I think it was a great show. (Review by Sara)
