The Way I Walk

 

1812 Productions, Philadelphia’s only All Comedy Theatre, is streaming its latest production, The Way I Walk, through May 23, 2021. Producing Artistic Director Jennifer Childs assembled three other extraordinarily talented Philadelphia actors and over an 8-month long collaborative process, the four women have developed a smash. Set up to be initially engaging  in a zoom conference break-out room, Jennifer Childs, Melanie Cotton, Tanaquil Marquez and Bi Jean Ngo delight the audience with their interactions. An ingenious board game, The Way I Walk, is designed to develop harmony and spirit among co-workers at a retreat. It is  played not only in the zoom room as the characters  choose their game pieces. This innovative game is also played on  a life-sized board with each of the actors dressed as their game pieces. It is absolutely  ingenious how the play is maneuvered back and forth between the real-life board and the zoom room. Characters are given a chance to sing, dance and see what it is like to walk in each other’s shoes. This is a brilliant concept exceptionally well executed.
