I NEVER thought I would write a review of Madame Bovary and quote the INXS song 'Need You Tonight'.

But in the case of Infinity Pool: A modern Re-telling of Madame Bovary I find myself looking at the lyrics and having a light bulb moment.

The song features at the start of what I can only describe as a play which encapsulated the light fantastic of a cyber connectivity adventure.

The song Need you Tonight has within it the lyrics: "I'm lonely, can't think at all, don't live a life, so slide over here and give me a moment. Your needs are so raw, I've got to let you know..."

And without knowing it these words tell you this character is lonely, can't think properly and doesn't live a life - and there in a nut shell of brevity and succinctness you have the emotional problems of a 21st Century Madame Bovary who is called Emma and lives in Plymouth.

What the author and performer, Bea Roberts cooks up via her electronic social media, cyber kinetic, gizmo gadget world is an online line adventure which serves up hope, dreams and a dose of reality.

It's a written creation of words and images via Facebook, What's App, answer machine messages and emails which fuel this 60 minute Cinderella complex of love.

The main character does loose her shoe while possibly trying to meet the man she thinks could be Prince Charming.

This Prince Charming is called Kick or he says Christian but Kick for all you pop fans will realise is the title of INXS's first album and a the title of a song on it.

And maybe there was a link with Michael Hutchence who had a romantic relationship with Helena Christensen...(Christian)...maybe.

What we are given in this portal on a social media adventure is a double duvet moment (if you have seen the play you'll know this reference) of a woman in love, yearning for something better, something brighter but will it shine as brightly as the stars in the sky at night?

As this was the final performance of the play then the answer is no, but she finds new friends who give her solace and friendship which her life lacked.

This was a play with no actors, it was a PowerPoint presentation which made the best use of a over head projector you will ever see.

Bea Roberts must be applauded for this work which was a delicate balance between laughter and sadness, between despair and hope.

By sailing between these pillars she pulled off a tremendous achievement which will long be remembered by those who were at The Brewhouse Theatre in Taunton last Thursday.
