Buntport Theatre’s Siren Song is a serialized pirate play for all ages. Each episode incorporates a pop song for added challenge to the creative team. This month’s song was “Country Roads, Take Me Home” by John Denver. The show started with a video presenting a snippet of the song with the lyrics. As it turned out, those lyrics were instrumental to the show.
The script writers did a great job of creating a story that can be easily followed, even if you missed the previous episodes. The sets were cleverly created, providing multiple playing spaces. The pirate ship was raised allowing for scenes underwater. And “Mountain Momma’s” home was quickly assembled each time she appeared.The cast were all talented, delivering believable performances in the midst of silly situations. Despite not seeing other episodes, the characters were easy to figure out. And they all seemed to be having as much fun as the audience!
At the conclusion of the performance was an eager anticipation to return to find out how it all ends up. The cast greeted the audience as they left, taking time to interact with everyone.
