The puppets are unbelievable. And this actor is... astonishing. Naturally funny with an innocence that is incredibly believable.
Exactly. He has the innocence, imagination, and emotional resilience needed to survive something terrible & come out stronger for it. In this play, imagination is actually his greatest asset.
The acting is absolutely incredible, the way he holds the scene and captures you immediately is astounding. The magic they’re able to capture so quickly is a testament to all of their talents
My goodness how well crafted these puppets are!
I saw this in New York and was absolutely blown away and got very emotional. An astonishing piece of theater.
Me too! Don’t get why it closed so soon
The best West End show I have seen with puppetry since War House. The technical talent and graphics along with the cast were all amazing
Oh my lord this show looks positively enchanting! The puppetry is on point, the gentleman playing Pi has fantastic stage presence and is absolutely charming! I would love to see this show 😍🐅❤
Theater has a such transformative power, more than books or even film. I think that makes the play adaptation the most powerful iteration of "The Life of Pi" yet!
We ended up exchanging this model for the slimmer version ua-cam.com/users/postUgkx0jZ_lGlDVJhDnmagEU8gn47cmfPNlLQU because it was too wide for the only door trim area that made sense to mount it on. However, we should have just noted the dimensions prior to purchasing. Otherwise, we love the doorbell. It works perfectly, and the video is very clear, even at night.
I watched the play and it's so amazing. The visuals the acting the sound effects everything was so perfect I felt like I was actually there with them. It is really so good. One of my favourite plays so far love it !!
One of the best shows I’ve even seen stunning and visually beautiful
The hability they have to transform on screen media into theatre neves ceases to amaze me
Well its more of a book thats now a theathre and a movie..
the pacing of the dialogue is really captivating.
Wow.. beautiful and creative piece if work on the stage. Well done Hiran..❤️
Wow..the movement of those puppets..amazing
Amazing 🤩
OMG....what a creative piece of work❤❤❤❤
Hats off Hiran Abeysekera ❤
Great performance!
I cried because it was so beautiful
Me too. I was in tears with the beauty of the shipwreck scene. The contrast between the aggressive trotting of the animals on the boat and the lightness with which they were handled to look as though they were floating underwater made me cry at such ingenuity. They created magnificent effects without any water used, and hardly any water-like lighting effect! Just a few blue shades, human props, and superb actors and puppeteers with unbelievable core strength and talent. I thought I had died and gone to heaven! Inebriated without a drink!
I am also..it's soo heart touching...
oh its a sign of mild depressa
Me too
You guys are really amazingg
Loved this theatrical wizardry. Incredible performances by all. Need to see the full production before I comment on the puppeteer costumes.
The puppeteer costumes are most distracting. Why not plain black dance wear?
@@MuttshackAdoptions agree from what we can see, but there must have been a reason for the choice. These are brilliant designers. Perhaps the puppeteers play a bunch of other roles.
I swear i couldn't take my eyes off from pi
WOW!
Other worldly... exceptional artistry.
Woww.. Also life of pi is my fav movie
Just announced in Cleveland. This looks awesome!
Hats off Hiran Abeysekera.......this is really beautiful
I just watched the actuall full show in hull yesteeday and it was incredible
Just watched in Hull myself ,unbelievable!!
Wowww
WOW
So talented, art in motion. Bin the AI Robots, these puppets and the puppeteers are REAL.
If I get to watch this I know I will need a box of tissues!
I guess this is the Lion King for the newer audience. But it all seems reinvented with the introduction of more available live effects 20plus years later.
This could be way better if the puppeteers are dressed up all black so they kinda disappear and all you see is the actual puppets.
I agree
Yea it's a pretty weird choice they've made, i guess they thought the traditional clothes would blend in more than futuristic black shadow people but I'd rather the black for sure I just see a mass of people like The Thing
Do go see this is you have the chance it was really moving
Loved this - however I’m slightly confused as to why Pi has a strong accent while his sister and parents do not?
The actors were just asked to use their own natural accents for the authenticity of their voice rather than put on a South Indian accent! The lead's accent just happens to sound like that!
The lead is from Sri Lanka and that's his natural accent where as the other actors are British Born.
@X2 JoelMK 33 What do you mean? I was replying to Lizzie x7's question. Where is it mentioned elsewhere that he's Sri Lankan?
Pi has a sister now, instead of a brother?
Warhorse meets Lion King
I have the script if anyone wants me to send you some pages. It’s quite good, actually like 1000 times better than the film script. Haven’t read the book, but not sure there’s a “frame narrative device” in that one.
hey! im actually interested!
#IndiaStandsWithMCSTan #IndoreStandsWithMCStan Say no to hate politics in India
Lol
Job
wait.. not a single music?
The Lion King 2.0
Very theatrical. Very WAR HORSE Very LION KING Very admirable But In the end kinda silly to see people holding animal suits.
Then why are there tears in my eyes? You either can get into it, or you can’t, but to call it silly is churlish.
Perhaps because this clip is only a few minutes long. When I watched War Horse on stage years ago, at the beginning I remember thinking it was weird to have people operating the horse puppets, but by the end you’re so immersed in the story you almost forget the people are there!
The puppeteers quite frankly are a distraction. Would have strongly suggested to go with all black suits but looks like this was an informed and deliberate choice of clothing.
The puppeteer actors need to wear all black to make the animal pop more. Theyre too distracting
Kids stuff daft big puppets
Love the puppetry but not sure what I feel with people holding the puppets like that. It doesnt give the same magic as Lion King to me
Is it supposed to give the same “magic”?
I have the impression that it works much better in the theatre than in TV close-ups like these.
@@Xalira you could be right.
@@bm4114 idk. But personally, I feel that the people im the side of an animal hides the artistry of the puppets a bit
The puppeteers are a bit distracting... can they be fully covered in black hoods, mask, tights and leotards?
I was scratching my head on the same thing, seems like a no brainer thing but this seems like a deliberate choice sadly. It causes so much distraction as my focus is quite frankly divided. Imagine if the puppeteer was hot too
As with Lion King and War Horse, it doesn't take long to forget about the puppeteers and focus completely on the animals...
wow
