In The Dark – Regina Fringe Festival

Regina, SK – From two multi-award winning, masterful British comedians comes the elegant, hilarious, and visually exquisite James & Jamesy in the Dark on stage July 6 – 10 at Saskatchewan Express. It’s raw, poignant, and performed… in the dark. In James & Jamesy in the Dark, the dynamic duo courageously step onstage as performers and lighting designers, conjuring a story about finding meaning in life and the integral value of friendship in that journey. “These guys are maestros at making theatre magic with the simplest of elements. It’s like watching two big imaginative kids in a tent with flashlights, as they bring to life a whole world and invite you to step inside. They may be big kids, but James & Jamesy are exploring big questions about the role of the artist and the power of creation. And they’re breaking down the fourth wall so you can be part of the fun. It’s an unforgettable experience. Don’t miss it.” – ★★★★★ CBC With a spotlight affixed to each of the performers’ costumes, the 14-time “Best-of-Fest” winners conduct the audiences’ attention with meticulous precision, creating a high-contrast world of shadow and light that immerses audiences and redefines interactive theatre. Blending comedy, mime, clown, puppetry, and dance, James & Jamesy give attention to the detail of each footstep, breath, movement, word, and pause, drawing out musicality and meaning from silence and darkness. Hailed as “a child’s imagination on steroids” by the London Free Press and “complete and utter fun” by the CBC, critics rave for the charismatic James & Jamesy.
