Sleep No More

[leeper]

"Sleep No More" is reviewed in today's NY Times. I saw it in Boston last year and twice in New York. It's a very unique experience but perhaps not for everyone. The action takes place in dozens of rooms over 3-4 different floors (I lost track). It is completely non-linear and I don't think it is possible to see every interaction even in multiple viewings. You also need a certain amount of stamina as you are standing, walking, and occasionally running over the course of three hours. If you do find a chair to sit down in, you run the risk of sitting in fake blood if you pick the wrong chair - I know this from personal experience. As pointed out in the review, there is no talking. The actors convey their stories primarily through their actions and the audience is required to be mute. The detail of the sets in the different rooms is incredible. And being mindful of the primary audience in this forum, I should point out that there is some full male nudity. Feeling that I have still missed some of the action, I want to see it again.
