:JeT of BLoOd:

I went to see Jet of Blood yesterday and it was terrifying and fascinating and grotesque. I could never try and explain the plot as there was no chronologicalality in the events that happened onstage. There was a sex scene in it yes and MS MACE DOWNPLAYED IT QUITE A BIT because the actors were a lot closer than she said they would be. Basically because it was abstract, the actors weren't having sex at all. The man, who was actually dressed as a baby, had a cheese grater on his left hand. With the grater, he 'fisted' the girl and she reacted. Quite gross actually. There were actually lots of gross sexual things in it. All well. The most important thing was the sound. The music used was crucial to how the audience reacted. At one point the music rose to a screaming climax that actually had me covering my ears in apin. At another point the music was so scary that holly and I stopped watching because we were so tense. There were so many shocks and scares too. Like this guy who plays 'death' coming right up to me and kiah and staring right at us after killing someone else. That scared the beejeebes out of us. aNd at one point, someone's phone went off (we still dont no if this was just acting) and a cats member went up to them and slapped them. That shocked everyone. There was a lot of nervous laughter he he. There is so much more that i guess that can give you sort of an idea of something....i dont no. It was really amazing though. It gave me a real appreciation for absurdist theatre...
