Santaland Diaries
Jan. 8th, 2007 04:22 pmWent to a splendid 70 minutes (no break) play Saturday night, at the Off Market theater in San Francisco; http://www.cafearts.com/santaland2006/.
It was a one-man show on a minimalist little stage. More impressive and effective use of Christmas lights I've never seen! :-)
David Sinaiko did a fine job. There was little space between the actor and the front row, and I was really impressed how apparently effortlessly he handle numerous occasions of looking 'at' someone in the audience. He did a wonderful job of creating the sense of being in different space, though the use of two black cubes and one Santa chair. :-) The play is very funny. It has minor and amusing gay content; less than I would've guessed from the photos on the website.
The little house was packed, which was very cool. The play deserved it. I think the run is nearly over... catch it one day if you get the opportunity. When you consider that we saw it AFTER the holidays, and I'm recommending it now, you'll know how funny it was!
