A bit interesting and different type of show, that much can say that is in the category of audiovisual feat with a non-verbal where the communications are shaped by feelings, emotions and body language. This is one of the types of show that the children will hate and get bored to see, but it will be awesome and a bit thrilling for any adults.
I have to give a lot of credit to the casts of this show, how they found the way to entertain the audience making they laugh and mourn, without saying any word, just singing a song in a couple of occasions, and a violinist that play the violin the whole show and did a splendid job, the cast that was operated the puppet (witch, raven and the woodsman metal) did a great job.
The Woodsman tell a story of a 'woodsman' that fall in love with a slave girl that is the property of a witch. In order to stop this love the witch cast a spell to the axe, that every time he used it, the axe cut of part of his body. Each time that the axe cut a part of his body this was replace with a metal part, until he turn 100% metal and he cannot "love" again.
I recommend you to come and see this play 100%, but I will give you a warning please do not come with any children, because they will not...

Read moreSaw "The Undertaking" here, which was a great show. Theater B was a fantastic small theater, each row well-elevated so even not as tall people (like my wife) can see well. The sound, the lighting and the visuals were top notch - this performance involved a lot of film and animation projections as well as background music and pre-recorded interviews. The stage was designed very well, the vertical, hanging white strips that served as backdrop reflected the projected images well, but were inobtrusive when there were scenes without visuals. It was quite nice to see a perfprmance in such an intimate space. The ushers were friendly and helpful. They could maybe use a little more space and seating near the bar where you must wait before the theater is ready, but, even so, it did not feel too crowded there. The tickets were reasonably priced.
