Fringe review: Post-apocalyptic ‘Neon Breeze’ is quite choppy

posted in: All news | 0

Could Be Worse

Somewhere in the not-too-distant future, two young friends — or perhaps cuddle buddies or lovers — accomplish missions throughout an underground metropolis savaged by capitalism to make ever-elusive rent, while facing flaky clients, bandits and low credit scores.

“Neon Breeze” conveys a semblance of a post-apocalyptic scene well, owing to it being played at the cavernous Southern Theater. Otherwise, the show is hard to understand. Perhaps it’s because of the drawn-out dialogue between the action scenes. Perhaps it’s also because I don’t understand German, or how different people experience love.

Presented by The House In The Woods at the Southern Theater; 1:00 p.m. Aug. 2, 7:00 p.m. Aug. 7, 10:00 p.m. Aug. 8, 8:30 p.m. Aug. 10
