Doctor Brown – Bexperiments (Soho Theatre and the Mason Sisters at PBJ)
By Alice Harrold | Published on Saturday 31 August 2013
Improvised doesn’t cover it. Doctor Brown, just like the rest of us, had no idea where this show was going. And by show, I mean one hour slot in his eight hour madness, as Brown performed eight one hour shows back-to-back. The result was a lot of sweat, adrenaline and general exhaustion. Each show took its lead from the proceeding set and so on, until the final hour produced a completed show. Given Brown’s reputation for embarrassing audience members, most onlookers entered the Underbelly with caution, all the while unable to resist this unique opportunity. This one day marvel may be over, but you can still get yourself to his other show: ‘Because, Becaves and Befrdfgth’.
Underbelly Cowgate, 13 Aug, 12.00-7.00pm.
