IT IS NOT EVERYDAY that one experiences an eye mesmerizing performance of art, dance and comedy as it was in "THE PAINTERS". The show is themed at the struggle of 4 young artists whose strive is the cause of our joy and laughter. Through a set of 10 art pieces and brilliant light and music coordination, 'the painters' takes its audience on a vivid and stimulating journey through the cosmos of shapes and colours. The artists demonstrate a high "audience awareness" and are often seeing improvising with LED paintbrushes and fun acts to keep the audience engaged.
Although innovative in the use of art to push their story line, 'The Painters' overall theme isn't very different from other major shows in Seoul. The dance and comic actions seem characteristically shared but it's application of art sets it apart from the common league. My suggestion to potential viewers is as follows: "If this is your first time watching a show in Seoul, I strongly recommend you to go to"The Painters", but if you have already been at other shows then I suggest you to take a walk along Cheongggye Stream instead. The chilly autumn weather and the saved money will only serve as an added bonus."
