Terracotta Warriors deserves standing ovations on repeated viewings

Todd
on Thu 27 May 2004 01:57 PM PDT
REVIEW:
I saw Terracotta Warriors again on Tuesday May 25. It stands up very well to repeated viewing. And I was looking at it with a much more critical eye concerning all the recent controversy. All the things that amazed me the first time around, still worked their "Wow" factor, despite my knowing what was coming. I could pay more attention to observing the details ,

"I wanted to congratulate you, by the way, for the excellently worded commentary I heard you deliver on CBC's Early Edition the other day.

Terracotta Warriors ignite war of words about reviewing art and culture

In Vancouver, a debate over how art should be reviewed is growing. On one side is Dr. Dennis Law, one of the owners of the Centre in Vancouver for the Performing Arts and the writer/producer and director of Terracotta Warriors, the second in a development of show spectacles he calls "Action-Musicals." On the other side are Vancouver’s art and culture critics of the Vancouver Sun, West Ender, Globe & Mail and Georgia Straight. In the middle are Vancouver’s audiences, many whom are enjoying "Terracotta Warriors" despite what the reviewers are writing. more »
