Stopping By – Theatre Review |
A review by Rachel Flanagan
Barbara Tarbuck. Photos by Brian Drillinger Christine and Charley were a loving married older couple with an adult son and a generally normal life. That is until one morning when they were making love and Charley suddenly could not see clearly anymore. It was not because the lovemaking was so extraordinary that Charley was seeing Picasso artwork, but instead that he was having a stroke. This was only the beginning of a new life adventure for Christine.
This one person performance is almost like an over enthusiastic book reading with Barbara acting out certain parts of the story and changing her voices to sound like each new character she encounters. Through her expressive storytelling, Barbara is able to take the audience on this ride as Christine experiences it, through her memories as she remembers them and leaves them feeling the same awe and joy that she experiences in this metropolis created seemingly overnight by thousands of people who just want their chance to be a part of Burning Man history. Stopping By written and performed by Barbara Tarbuck at the Echo Theater Company Wednesdays through April 13, 2016 at 8pm. The Echo Theatre Company |
