Wild West Adventure Party

PREVIEW dated Sunday 7th February

Review by Brigitte Baden-Rennie of THE MOSAIC CAT

Yesterday afternoon this Cat time travelled back to 1883 and the lawless Wild West in Texas and she didn’t even get out of her comfy chair. Via Zoom I journeyed with my fellow travellers across vast plains heading to Mexico for a new start but circumstances were soon against us and we had many decisions to make. I’ll stop right here so not to give away the adventure that lies before you on this rootin’, tootin’ gunslinging, skirt twirling adventure created and guided by Shelby Bond a.k.a. Pleasant Curtis from his studio in L.A.

I’ve never experienced anything like this before either in reality or on-line and I’ve been around for a bit so that’s saying something. I absolutely loved it! Yes, it warrants an exclamation mark.  Mr Bond is a charming, generous host with really solid acting and technical skills, drawing together this group of disparate journey men and women – all on a computer screen. That’s saying something as I have on many occasions found live streaming performances lacking in atmosphere with a feeling of disassociation from the artist. I particularly enjoyed seeing all the adults begin to loosen up and play. Yes, play is not just for children.  Re-engaging your imagination is cathartic. The youngest of our travel companions were 6 & 8 accompanied by a fun loving dad somewhere in California apparently and the oldest (apart from yours truly) were 40/50-ish.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

We all need some good, wholesome, thigh slapping, gingham wearing fun at the moment and Shelby’s Wild West Adventure Party offers it to you as you write your own adventure story with every throw of the dice.

Gather your friends, go to the Wild West and take yourself on an imaginative, cleverly crafted and COVID safe adventure because dang it, excuse the language, let yourself go and enjoy yourselves. Y’all sure deserve it.
