Review: Above Me The Wide Blue Sky

This Fevered Sleep/Young Vic co-production is difficult to classify – theatre, music, performance art, installation? I cannot get out much at the moment so grabbed a chance to see it this afternoon and am glad I did. It reminded me of the Orb track “Little Fluffy Clouds,” a drifting meditation on memories. The performance itself is only 45 minutes long but the doors open to the installation for an hour before. I recommend going at least 30 minutes before the performance time to ‘acclimatise.’ The video gives some idea but is too short to establish the meditative state the actual performance/installation creates.
