Manual Cinema's Frankenstein

4
Seen at the Edinburgh Fringe
By Edfringe19 - 23rd Aug 2019

Well ths is a curious one. Essentially it is a silent movie told through shadow play, puppets and music. I now know where all the olf OHP projectors went, this company puts them to excellent use delivering a masterful piece of shadow theatre - on screen. Fortunately we are able to see all of the work and mechanics that go into this as it is all acted out on stage, personally I watched them doing it rather than the resulting film, there is some amazing choreography and timimg required to get this anywhere near right - and they were spot on.
