Fringe review - Every Film Ever Made, The Hound of the Baskervilles

26/02/2008 3:47:21 PM
Energetic hosts Adam, Tegan and Robby go through an intensely physical workout in their endeavours to bravely act out every movie ever made. Their exuberant attention to detail is set right from the get-go with their own inimitable version of THX surround sound and credits.

It is obvious that they love what they do and every drop of sweat wrung out out of them in the close confines of The Pod was paid back doubly by the appreciative audience. They cover every genre in a vast array of mimicry, singing, dancing, signage, sulks and slapstick – blockbusters, rom-coms, classics, silent movies and Bollywood. They won my eternal respect by including the key boombox scene from John Cusack’s Say Anything.

With Robby’s maniacal grin (and good Woody Allen impersonation: “He talks like he’s sneezing and eating at the same time”), blonde cutie Tegan’s ability to sing in tune as well as out-creep Gollum and Adam the human equivalent of a pogo stick on acid, the show is a high impact hour of hilarity. Catch it if you can and you’ll feel as though you’ve had a bonus workout session. Bosco Theatre in the Garden of Unearthly Delights until March 16.
