I had the opportunity to see this electro funk theatrical production at The Blue Theater last weekend and it continues this weekend only.
This interactive musical theater is a collaboration between the band Mighty Five (New York) and producer, co-writer, Austin based Xaq Webb of Rockus Entertainment. Not only does the audience watch a theater piece with musicians and dancers on stage, they are highly encouraged to dance with and among the stage dancers/actors who hit the floor during their performance.
I found the production fun and different, in that everyone in the theater can become a part of the production instead of just a spectator. Oftentimes I have been to a concert or musical when I wanted to get up and dance, but it is not allowed. I understand it can be intruding on someone else's enjoyment of the production when their view is blocked, but with the way the stage is set up at The Blue Theater, the seats were up high enough for those who did not partake of the dance party to continue to be a spectator with no interruption.
Some of the songs were easier to groove to, but others did not appeal to me to jump right in. Although this was my experience, it is not the same for others in attendance and they really immersed themselves in the dance and good time.
There is one scene that is very appealing and it is by one of the approximately eight or so dancers in the musical who absolutely stood out from the others. It was obvious to me she has an ability to dance from the way she moves and she later has a solo in the production where she is dressed in an all white outfit. She looked elegant and that portion of the performance is what I believe made the whole production move up a notch in reasons to attend and enjoy.
