Bad theatre for children

Today we went to see "At Nightfall" at the Ottawa International Children's Festival. Now that's bad theatre. Nothing happens in the story. It's pure non-sense. I couldn't stand it anymore and we left after 20 minutes. I want my money back but I guess it's in the fine print somewhere that I can't have it. Anyways, whoever wrote this thing, geez, couldn't you write something where there's action and stuff happening? Whoever approved this piece is also an accomplice. By the Sursaut Dance Company, Serbrooke, Quebec.

Now the "Christian" stuff: there's lots of information on culture "over there". I suppose it is a good advice for any believer, but pastors mainly should be the ones interpreting culture. There's art, there's communication, there's hope, there's reality, there's surreality. All the good stuff that is lacking in churches. This language is rich.
