My mum and her friend came to see Berlin. It was going to be my mum and my dad but he couldn't make it. Friend of mum is a lot of fun though. She said we should go see a show so, a show we saw.
"The Wyld: Out of the World"
The Friedrichstadt-Palast is a gorgeous theatre. The 1930's decor, the high ceilings, the staircase taking the centre of the ground floor and the singer (singing a lounge version of Britney Spears' Toxic amongst others) gave a sense of a place outside of time.
So we went in. There are no bad seats nnless you're really short. All have a good view of the stage. Started off a little strangely. A guy came on in a crew shirt and seemed to be doing stuff... Then dancers came on and we saw a scene set in a dance studio. Intriguing... Curtains came down and the spectacle started! Dance numbers, acrobatics, and a slightly odd segment with trained poodles. Guys doing tricks on bikes, insanely agile and impossibly strong men tumbling and some silks and trapeze work!
Stage sets included a flying saucer, floating platforms, some amazing lighting effects as the stage twisted and turned.
And the costumes were so good I'm running out of superlatives!
I loved it!
