- Each actor fully committed themselves to their role. Sometimes i find personally as an actor i find it hard to expose and embaress yourself in front of an audience so i have huge respect for all the cast in this play who openly allowed themselves to be out there and not take themselves so seriously.
- One thing that i believe could have been improved was the transitions. Throughout the play three drag characters would do a dance routine to music which changed the set or lead to a new scene. At first i found it interesting and humours to watch however because this kept being repeated in every transition i felt the humour was lost and it began to look like they were trying to just cover up the moving of the set with music and dance. I would of suggested having just 2 or 3 main dance routines throughout the piece as a transition where all cast members come on stage and reveal something more about there character wether it being the way they dance, the way they walk and talk, the way they interact with others etc. And also using different genres of music and different characters for each genre would have also kept an interest and excitement in scene changes and it would be constantly realign something more about that character.
- I partiality thought that Billy's performance stood out throughout the whole play. You could see that he had spend time and effort thinking about all the details of his character, for example the way he walked and talked, the way he spoke and moved his mouth were all cleverly thought about which made me want to watch him and invest in his character. One movement which i liked was he often would move his feet inwards and shuffle around like a small child would if they were irritated or needed the toilet, i liked this because it created and air of innocence which drew the audience to be in favour of him. I also think Jack did a really good job of playing the same character in his own way. He didn't just copy Bill and Bill didn't copy Jack they each brought something different, Jack was more gentle and quite and Bill was feistier.
