Weird! Silly! Only at the Fringe are these high compliments. Add in a couple of hundred shadow puppets, an environmental message, a multiracial performance team and you've got Space Hippo.
The show was sold-out and the entire audience seemed to love it. I'm a fan of Mind of a Snail local shadow puppet troupe and I'll bet they and their other fans love this show. Shadow-puppet-love was visceral and audible. Endorphins were just all over the place. Go and soak up the good cheer.
The creators and performers are Daniel Wishes and Seri Yanai and they are, well,...
My cheeks still hurt from all the laughter and enjoyment I received as Miss Hiccup (Japanese clown Shoshniz) went about her day on opening night. The pace of the show was fast, with lots of physical comedy, dance, impressive vocal power...*hiccup*...and of course Miss Hiccup, hiccuping all the way through.
