Black Velvet
Seen at the Edinburgh Fringe, Bedlam
A slightly rambling two-hander set in a graveyard as two young people, both of whom have lost their mothers, try to come to terms with the impact is has on their lives and the reactions they have had to endure from friends and family.
This was not one for me. The script could do with tightening, direction needs to be rethought to provide more light and shade and to rein the actors in as in an intimate piece like this, less is most definitely more.
