Back to Reality

It was a dilemma any reality TV loving viewer will face…. Do I stay in and watch the first live show of The Voice or go out on a Saturday night, but risk seeing the result on social networks before having the time to catch up on Sky +?!

After a slight deliberation and the lure of a special guest star, the theatre won and I pulled on my reviewer cap and off I went to see Factor 2025.

Ironically the play was about the demise of TV talent shows and the mindset of the modern viewer, so my earlier deliberation was rather fitting.

Johnny Tait was the mastermind behind the piece and playing the pivotal character ‘Trenton Powell’ (no guesses as to which reality supremo he was emulating) he raised more than a few laughs from the audience.  With a script littered with risky jokes, near the mark innuendoes and shocking revelations, it kept me laughing even when I knew I shouldn’t.

The story centred around Powell and the newest series of his failing reality show, but instead of focusing on talent, the main aim was to exaggerate the unfortunate stories of the contestants for audience pleasure, resulting in higher viewing figures.

I found myself anaslysing this throughout the piece asking myself what kind of people are we as a viewing nation if negative stories and bad news make us hungry for more, more, more! (apologies for the ‘in-joke,’ I supposed you had to be there.)

A highlight of the show was a completely unexpected near naked cameo by Celebrity Big Brother winner Alex Reid, who threw all inhibitions out of the window and strutted his stuff on stage wearing a tighter pair of hotpants than Kyle Minogue. Thank goodness my sister was present, otherwise I may have lost myself and thrown in a few wolf whistles and whoops for good measure!

The talent that was interspersed throughout the play showcased a few rising stars, and a comically timed rendition of ‘On My Own’ was a real highlight.

Tait has really wrapped up the modern viewers cynicism in a neat little package of quick humour, relatable scripting and personable anecdotes. Providing a well rounded evening of entertainment that was worth missing The Voice for!

So what is the future of reality TV shows? As an audience are we going to push for more obscure and negative stories, is ‘talent’ going to run out, or will we be driven back to classic mediums of entertainment? Whatever the outcome, you can be sure I will be one of those entertainment junkies following the turbulent journey of the manipulated contestant until our very own Mr Cowell puts the idea to bed.
