The only more fascinating and more artistic performance is the backroom mannikin storage area at Macy’s

Showroom dummies?

The gravity-defying bewbs are awesome. Otherwise it’s just advertising, not art.

“A performance takes talent to do this thing called “perform”. Not just stand there.”

Really? You don’t see the movement? Those two hours were packed with an intensity that I never expected to experience when I originally signed up to be a member of the cast. In all fairness if you’re looking at a one-dimensional snapshot of a four-dimensional event then it’s hard to see movement. And it’s maybe worth considering that it’s considerably harder to express something through silence and stillness than it is through sound and movement.

I wonder if this show will get better and better the longer it takes stuff to rez. You know, moar suspense and all… That would mean that these people have figured out an SL activity that gets better and better the more that LL craps things up. Genius.

This isn’t a “performance”, it’s a “display”.

Art is something that makes you think. All this makes me think is “gee, that’s retarded.” Fail.

Although the performers are all wearing their own shape, skin and hair, it’s really striking how similar they all look.

/me made it into two pictures!

Seriously though, we did hear the sim creaking under the strain a few times during the performance. It was worth it though and it was a rewarding experience for all involved.
