Girl’s End: A Guide to the Zombie Apocalypse
Current stage—Tom Hendry Theatre at the MTC Warehouse
Fringe isn’t Fringe for me unless I see a good zombie apocalypse show. This is a good show but I wouldn’t quite categorise it as a zombie show. You can substitute any calamity that locks the
protagonist in a steel box and create the same character actualisation. Still, zombie it is and that’s just fine.
The show, the music and the singing are also fine, with one huge glaring problem: Abrahamson’s keyboards are so loud that I could not hear Warriner’s lyrics—and Warriner’s got some pipes, so you can just imagine how loud the keyboards are. Since half of the character development comes from the lyrics, I missed much of what’s happening. Don’t get me wrong—the tracks are good and they support the show very well, but in the end, it’s supposed to be support.
