Control, this is Control!
So this evening, I went and saw the touring version of Andrew Lloyd-Webber’s musical “Starlight Express” in Norwich. I had previously seen the West End version a couple of times, and was quite interested to see how such a big production could translate onto a smaller stage.
I wasn’t disappointed, the full spectacle was still there with additional songs and some 3d-glasses (of the non red-green headache inducing kind) made up for the roller-skating action that just wouldn’t fit into the theatre.
I guess I should try and stay on topic, especially since I’m only on my fourth entry so far. Being the geek that I am, I spent a few moments during the “3d” sections of the show trying to figure out for myself how the glasses worked, and failed miserably. Luckily, the URL of the manufacturers were printed on the side, so a quick visit to their web site revealed that they work using polarizing filters.
