Narnia : The lion The Witch and The Wardrobe
Sun, 17 Jan 2010, 10:43 pmHas anyone seen Narnia yet? I would like to see some review before I commit to going.
Too late but. . .
Wed, 27 Jan 2010, 10:17 amI do agree with Julia Hern bowever it got to the point that I groaned every time the actors began to sing, not because the singing wasn't good but there was simply TOO much of it and it stopped the plot from moving forward.
The acting, dancing and singing were of a good quality. However some accents wavered and continuity became a problem for those actors.
I was however, amazed at the standard of costume, makeup and the orchestra - I tip my hat to you. I just would have liked to hear a few of the singers more, they were drowned out by the orchestra. I'd like to make a special note to Peter Carr as Maugrim - I now know why they make us make weird grunting and throat noises in theatre class! Well done for a somewhat scary portrayal of the Wolf Chief. And also to Natalie Burbage as the White Witch - scary yet still funny!
Overall though it was a good quality production, worth the drive and the slightly more expensive than usual tickets (even for a student budget).
