I love how they try and succeed with expressing christophers way of thinking. The scenes where they dance and get intimated by each other, were i think smybolyzing why christopher does not want to be touched OR whats going on in his mind when someone touches him. it‘s an incredible peace !

@user-zb4we7hr4j 10 месяцев назад

The actors portrayed their individual characters quite accurately and thus played their roles well. It’s impressive how much insight as to what is going on inside the character, Christophers mind the staff actually has and how the actors can clearly show what was intended to be. The gymnastic capabilities of the actors regardless of their age were rather intriguing. The whole play also gave good insight on the view of people with a different way of seeing the world compared to the average person. Thank you for the performance, it was fun.

I read this book in 2004 and it moved me in a way that a contemporary book hadn't in ages. I was a Speech Therapy major at the time and I just fell in love with Christopher. When I found that it was on Broadway I almost laughed because I thought I was the only one who loved this book. I was 5th row center when I saw it and I cried.Mark is a truly amazing, kind, individual.

In this video, the gas station scene is beautifully captured from Christoper‘s perspective highlighting his vivid Imagination and the colours he observes.For instance,he feels like touched.Futhermore ist Talks Also About Emotions of autistic people.The Video aims to show people who do not have autism how someone with autism sees and intreacts with the world.

I’ve just recently read the book but I think the way the actors portrayed Christopher and what goes on in his head when he makes decisions is very good. This play is very moving and educational too, well done!

I saw this at the Regent's Theatre in Stoke and my goodness it was fabulous! I wasn't sure what to expect but I was still so very impressed. I'm doing my AS Level exam on it now so this was very helpful! :)

Hi I have Aspergers Syndrome, supposedly High Functioning Autism, and I absolutely love what you have done with this production. I agree with the sensory aspect, whenever I go to a train station it can be perplexing with all the massive crowds. But I am a student at Durham university and I act as well, so I absolutely love what you have done with this production

@NationalTheatre 11 лет назад

Thank you for all of your comments, this is an incredible show and we are very proud of it. You may be interested to know that on our iTunes page we have interviews with the director Marianne Elliott and actor Una Stubbs.

@marou3678 10 месяцев назад

I thought this was very inspiring and interesting to have a look behind the scenes. The play seemed very creative and I had the feeling you get a very good look inside the brain of an autistic person.

@MegKBaker 5 лет назад

Saw this play before I was diagnosed with ASD at age 16, has been by far the best show I have ever seen, loved it so much I saw it twice! I’ve read the book as well

@AliceBarnden 11 лет назад

Wow I have recently seen this production and I can honestly say it was the best performance I have ever seen! The staging was incredible and you could really see and understand how Christopher was feeling! I recommend it so much!!!

@geoff394 11 лет назад

The play is one of the most extraordinary theatre going experiences of my life. It was funny, moving and incredibly imaginative. I saw it with Jack Loxton in the part and he was brilliant. I'm sure he's got a very promising and brilliant career ahead of him, and the entire cast was perfect.

@NationalTheatre 11 лет назад

The production is currently playing in the Apollo Theatre in the West End and there are currently no plans for the NT Live screening to be made available on DVD.

@jona-ams 10 месяцев назад

Thanks for this nice video! 🙌 it gave me a better view on people with autism, it showed me that not everything is bad 😅. The people seem really creative. But I can’t imagine how it feels being in the situation as an autistic person on the trainstation 🚆🤕. Well done 👍 🎉

@MilouAT 6 лет назад

I just saw this play yesterday in Carré Theatre in Amsterdam and it was literally mindblowing! Wow! The whole creation, every espect, was so great, so creatively thought out... I really felt everything because of becoming one with Christophers' world, thanks to all the visuals, lightning, music, sound effects, etc. as a creation of the crew but also because the cast did a more than great job, expressing in such a way with their emotions. Highly recommended!

@MilouAT 6 лет назад

And of course, the story itself is pretty cool as well:) Bringing some surprising changes within the plot, adding humor but also lots of other emotions!

@rhfkli1323 10 месяцев назад

I think the characters where displayed very good by the actors. I also think by having the insight of some Autistic People the scenes like the Trainstation were made even better, they also did a great job with portraing the overload of information and the confusion of Christopher during the whole play. While I think the whole play was quite good I was confused by the whole Christopher being touched very much but not reacting to it. I would have liked to see how they were going to portrait Wellingtons death though.

@kyubikurama7560 10 месяцев назад

I think the acting was quite good and was portrayed very well from the book, the actor (Luke) for Christopher even acted out the role when dealing with the rat which was used to portray Toby well. The old woman who acted out Mrs Alexander didn’t appear very often in the video and only appeared in the gymnastics which I didn’t understand. The video itself is a little confusing for me since I didn’t quite understand when they were acting out things and when not. I also liked it when they used wooden boxes to act out the scenes for example when using them as a substitute for the luggage.

How long was the rehearsal process for this production? As a corollary, how long are the National rehearsal periods for new plays (especially those with large physical performance components) in general? Thanks!

@NationalTheatre 10 лет назад

Hello Brian - the usual time allocated to the rehearsal of a National Theatre play is 6 weeks, this is for all plays new and old.

@Supasiders1 9 лет назад

Does anyone know what style of theatre the play was performed In ?

@kikihappy54 8 лет назад

It was performed in a thrust stage. Kinda like the ones we see in most theaters, but with an extra bit hanging over, giving the audience more angles to view it from.

@catty_5656 2 года назад

A wonderful play but I wish I could have actually seen it properly. I don't have autism but I have big issues around sensory overload. I went with my school last night and there was absolutely no warning (probably also because my school couldn't care less about its students' mental health). Spent the entire thing sobbing, shaking and unable to leave. The flashing lights, noises and graphic image of the dog at the beginning was very triggering. It was beautiful and I appreciate the way that they show people what it is like to be autistic, but I feel like the entire thing was just one big wave of sensory overload

The book was terrible, and so is the play. In fact, I use it as an example of how NOT to write a novel, and especially that's the case for Blue Terror.
