.lafergs reviews Heels, premiering tonight on Starz, a wrestling family drama that successfully blurs the lines between battles in and out of the ring:
: “All the world’s a stage. And all the men are merely players.” Because of course professional wrestling and Shakespeare go hand in hand; professional wrestling—or sports entertainment, even—is ultimately a very physical form of theatre. It is performance art. Immersive performance art, where the live audience is expected and encouraged to cheer the good guys and boo the bad guys . It’s territory that Netflix’shas its characters absolutely thrive in from the very moment we meet them.
They have ambitions, they have yearning, and they want to go do those things. And even if it doesn’t seem like it can be as big as something like the WWE, to them, in this town—just like anybody who’s in a play at a small town, at a local theatre, or is in a band that is going and playing their first show or their tenth show at a local music venue—the approach that they bring to their work has incredible effort and passion.
