Offending the audience
Germinal
Stage Denver: 8/9 – 8/2
By turns annoying, boring, uninteresting, interesting, puzzling and
exhilarating, “Offending the Audience” is the perfect choice for Germinal Stage
Denver’s swan song. “Conceived and administered” by Ed Baierlein the show features
a huge cast of actors who have peopled the shows at GSD for decades. In case
you may have forgotten their names each member of the cast has a big white card
with his name on it hanging from a string around his neck. The actors move
into, around and through the audience reciting lines with very little
expression. Many times another actor somewhere else in the space echoes the
line. For much of the show the house lights are on and so the patron gets to
watch his fellow theatergoers as well.
Among other things this production is a reunion of colleagues and
cohorts that allows not only a great number of the actors from the past to come
together in celebration but also allows those who have peopled the audience
over the years to participate as well.
It's not offensive!
