Something to See: Dave Gorman’s Googlewhack Adventure
I have a Stranger Suggests hyping this show in the paper hitting the streets today/tomorrow, but I don’t want to lose any time in urging all fans of good theater, smart comedy, and/or accomplished storytelling to check out Dave Gorman’s Googlewhack Adventure, running through Saturday at the Moore.
Key fact: A “Googlewhack” is what occurs when two random words are placed in a Google search engine to produce only one hit. (If you doubt the difficulty of scoring a Googlewhack, try it yourself. Ten bucks says the majority of your attempts bring back hundreds if not thousands of hits.)
But from this finicky word game. storyteller Dave Gorman (an exceedingly affable Brit who runs a mean power-point presentation) spins an amazing tale of obsession, international travel, and the nature of randomness that goes places you never could’ve imagined.
Really, it’s a knockout, it’s gotten rave reviews all over the world, and folks should see it before it’s gone. (Final Seattle performance: this Saturday, 9pm…)
