When the performance began I thought that it was going to be one of these shows with symbolism that no one can understand and a story line that you could achieve by cutting out words from a cereal box and rearranging blindly on the coffee table. And to be honest it was a little bit of this but although I was thinking that this is the kind of show that makes you envious of animals for not being able to try and understand it, at the same time I was indeed entertained, and watched the show through without wishing that I was somewhere else.

Although it was slightly all over the place, and took a while to establish each scene, you eventually became familiar with the characters and their situations.

At times it seemed a lot better thought out and the choreography especially showed up as a worked on feature.
