Frantic Assembly's 'Beautiful Burnout'

 On Thursday 22nd November we went to watch Frantic Assembly's 'Beautiful Burnout' at the Nuffield Theatre in Southampton. It was BRILLIANT!
 Beautiful Burnout told the story of a boy who's dreams of becoming a Professional Boxer came true but at a huge price. The story was told through dialogue and movement sequences.

 What I loved about this performance was the use of movement. Frantic Assembly are well known for their brilliant physical theatre and it didn't disappoint. My favourite movement sequences in the performance were the ones which showed training. The music they used had a very heavy bass and was very energetic and quick. This was effective as it created an energetic atmosphere which set the tone for the boxing theme.
