Theatre review: Salt and Pepper, theSpace on North Bridg (Venue 36)
Salt and Pepper
theSpace on North Bridge (Venue 36)
Star rating: * *
Only the one table is ever occupied, and over the supposed course of a day, nobody finishes a meal.
This lack of attention to basic credibility or continuity also extends to the performances, by Hull University’s Z Theatre Company, in a show whose main selling point, as customers/characters come and go, is its incorporation of recorded inner monologues with live dialogue and slapsticky mime. The resulting private/public disparity is anything but revelatory.
• Until 16 August. Today 12:05pm.
