Metanoia Theatre Co.—The Gargoyle Theatre

As someone familiar with videogame streaming, the concept is intriguing, but the overall affect was closer to YouTuber than a streamer. Stalking and doxxing are ever present dangers, and this show does a reasonable job explaining and presenting them to audiences who might be unfamiliar. Arguments between our two streamers frequently result in the actors yelling over one another, resulting in muddy dialogue, and hard to follow scenes. In addition to shaky acting and a weak ending, it maybe isn’t the best introduction to the online world.
