I went to the dress rehearsal of this year’s World Of Wearableart (WOW) Award Show.
It was great! Year after year, WOW manages to surpass itself.
The highlights for me were:
- The Children’s Section
- The Guy’s Suite Section
- The ‘Raining Men’ Section
- The UV Section
The Children’s Section was based on “Where the Wild Things Are” picture book; with a large cast of monsters and the stuff of children’s nightmares. The children’s energy – WOW use child performers – was very infectious.
There was lots of energy in the ‘Raining Men’ Section: the audience, of mainly young women, gave all of the guys lots of cheers. It got pretty hot – the audience got very excited when the topless guys moved right up to the edge of the stage (stage right).
The UV Section was the best I have seen. Well composed and used all three dimensions – incorporating a static trapeze and other five suspended performers.
