I am still excited, yesterday we went to the West End to see the great Arturo Brachetti, master of quick change…basically he changes outfit at a speed that leaves everyone open mouthed.
Arturo Brachetti was already great when I was a child and I used to watch him on tv shows and absolutely loved him! When we heard he was going to perform in London we bought the tickets as fast as we could. He hasn’t changed a bit, it’s still the lovely cheeky sweet person I remember from my childhood and he really is amazing.
The costumes were great, the music lovely and the show was really perfect, it was a sort of imaginary conversation between the old and the young himself, where the old self remembered shows he had done in the past, while preparing for his last performance.
He started with an homage to England and went on playing many different characters, at one point doing Hollywood’s famous films, from James Bond to King Kong, Harry Potter to Gollum, Dorothy from Wizard of Oz, Gone with the wind and a most hilarious Carmen Miranda with a singing banana (yes, a singing banana).
The show is suitable for all ages, just a bit cheeky sometimes, but kids love jokes about boobs! In fact my 7 year old loved it and she laughed at dancing boobs more than any other thing.
The Show ended with an homage to Federico Fellini and his movies.
This is a show worth watching, it’s on until early January , here is the link to the show.
Try typing his name on You Tube, you’ll see some of his acts.
