Charged Conversations
Black Cat Productions—Dave Barber Cinematheque
Listed run time is 45 minutes but actual run time was only 31 minutes. The write-up talks about and EV charging station and paranormal phenomena, but there isn’t really cogent connection between the two.
The two themes seem to remain disparate and discrete through most of the show.
The gags are fun enough but they need some exploration, development and expansion. As is, it seems we have an intro, a situation, and the climax comes too soon.
The Ouija looks fun but if you’re not in the front row, you don’t see it. They may have propped it up on chairs but it’s still well below eye level for the audience. You desperately need an easel or even a tall bar stool.
This is a good premise that opens doors to the potential of fun and whacky situations but this ghost needs some flesh.
