First rehearsal review: Ireland tells a visual story

First rehearsal review: Ireland tells a visual story

And here we are, Ireland was the last country today who did its first rehearsal. And we have to talk about it.

When Lesley Roy said that she will do something which has never been done at Eurovision, she was right. The staging concept is really similar to what we’ve seen in Destination Eurovision 2019 before from Silvan Areg. Below you can see a snippet of his performance:

It starts dark with Lesley between some paper-trees. The performance later moves on with story telling elements. Towards the end of the song, we see wide shots of the entire stage. The stage becomes orange-yellowish. Lesley moves through the catwalk.

Vocals were okay, the ending did not look good. The staging is really complex so I guess they are still working very hard so that it all matches well together.
