How to Love: The Headphone Play - mp3's have never been so dramatic...until now

The return of the all to known wet weather of Vancouver had return as the audience was getting ready for How to Love: The Headphone Play. Headphones were required to be part of the play as everyone was loaded up with an mp3 player. Lead by Darren Boquist (also the playwright), we headed  over to the onsite venue right at the docks behind the Granville Island Hotel as instructions were given to us through our mp3s.

The play itself is a heartfelt introspective story but to be part of the story and experience being the characters and participating was the best part. On our trek we battled against a little rain, but it added to the ambiance of the play. A large part it felt mother nature was not on our side, but we did have a perfect moment in one scene where a crane flew by as if it was participating with us.

This is definitely a Fringe must check out.

I've said this before in another review (if you've been reading) but the Fringe is about new ideas and having the audience interact. How to Love: The Headphone Play definitely has that in mind. A  must check out experience in my opinion. Just make sure to dress accordingly as it is noted in the Fringe Program.
