Italian Spiderman

Danger 5 is an Australian action surreal comedy television series which premiered on SBS One on 27 February 2012. The men's-adventure-magazine-inspired series was created by Dario Russo and David Ashby. The first series is set in a bizarre, campy, 1960s interpretation of World War II and follows a group of five international spies on a mission to kill Adolf Hitler and thwart his plans of world domination.[1] The second series is set in a similarly bizarre interpretation of 1982, with Hitler again the villain after somehow surviving the end of the war. The second series began airing on SBS 2 on 4 January 2015.

Project history

[edit]

Development

[edit]

After the success of the web series Italian Spiderman created by Alrugo Entertainment (Russo, Ashby, Tait Wilson, Will Spartalis and Boris Repasky), Australian broadcaster SBS became interested in turning the project into an interstitial television show.[2] Due to ownership and copyright issues within the production team, the project fell through. Nonetheless, SBS were still interested in Russo and Ashby and in 2009 offered a development deal for a new show.[3] Russo and Ashby submitted three concepts that, regardless of which was chosen, they would be happy to make. Danger 5 was the chosen concept, the most ambitious and dense of the three.[2]

Broadcast

[edit]

A prologue web series entitled Danger 5: The Diamond Girls was released weekly on YouTube throughout November and December 2011, in the lead up to the Australian broadcast.[4] The series itself premiered on SBS One on 27 February 2012.[5]

On 11 September 2014, the crew announced that series 2 had been delayed due to unforeseen international news events and the recent ISIS actions.[6] They released the series two trailer on the same day.[7] The second series began airing on SBS 2 on 4 January 2015.

Setting and style

[edit]

The first series is nominally set in World War II but uses a style more akin to a TV spy series. The titular Danger 5 are a small group of Allied agents who are tasked with stopping various schemes overseen by Adolf Hitler. Each episode sees an intentionally ahistorical version of a major Axis person come up with a bizarre plan more in line with a TV or comic book villain of the 1950s or 60s—stealing monuments from Allied nations to build an absurd Nazi super-monument, resurrecting dinosaurs, running a fixed casino to make weapons from gold and reprogramming captured airmen as Japanese pilots.

The series adds a further layer of satire by intentionally aping the production and dated values. Obvious studio sets are used for outdoor shots, model work is intentionally poor, usually featuring unrealistic movements and visible strings, the characters often laugh at bad puns immediately following the deaths of allies. All drink and smoke conspicuously while non-white characters are often played by white actors with poor make-up. Stock footage is also used, most notably a shot of Hitler jumping through a glass window to escape that is reused in settings that feature no such window.

Further surreal humour comes from the characters treating their universe seriously and not questioning various situations that are inexplicable to the viewer.

Characters

[edit]

Danger 5

[edit]

A team of five Allied operatives repeatedly given bizarre missions by Colonel Chestbridge, not to mention responsibility for killing Hitler. All are highly trained, happy to kill without feeling any remorse, drink alcohol casually before, during, and after what are pitched as serious military operations, and chain-smoke.

Jackson

[edit]

Jackson (David Ashby) is a macho and fiercely patriotic American, once abandoning the team in a futile attempt to prevent Hitler stealing the Statue of Liberty. He clashes frequently with Tucker on missions due to having a hedonistic and selfish approach to work. Jackson harbours an unrequited crush on Ilsa and reads Real Man Magazine.

Ilsa

[edit]

Ilsa (Nataša Ristić) is a Russian, and speaks all of her dialogue in Russian with subtitles, which everyone understands without comment. She wears her uniform with as much flesh showing as possible and sees little problem with using sex to help the team in their missions (once distracting Joseph Goebbels by performing oral sex on him) or even if she just feels like it. This may be due to the staid lack of emotions Russians in the series have. She feels Claire is a prude and is aware of Jackson's feelings for her but seems indifferent. Ilsa is also a former wife of Erwin Rommel.

Tucker

[edit]

Tucker is an uptight Australian member of the team. He is straight-laced to the point that hearing bossa nova causes him to suffer nosebleeds while he is often irked by the rest of the team being so easily distracted, though he is frequently undermined when they prove successful. He is a fan of Sensible Chuckle magazine and is in love with Claire, who saves him from becoming an indestructible Japanese robot-man. He later woos her with a self-written piece for the recorder and they finally kiss when the team seemingly kill Hitler in a tokusatsu mech battle, ending World War II. Despite being portrayed in-universe as a square he still partakes in the same level of drinking and smoking as everyone else.

At the start of the second series they are preparing to get married when Claire is murdered by a returning Hitler. A grief-stricken Tucker attempts to turn himself into a brooding revenge-driven ninja in response but turns out to be inept. Throughout the series, he suffers flashbacks of Claire's beheading and carries her head around with him.

Claire

[edit]

Claire is a Cambridge graduate and a prim, chaste English woman. She is frequently uncomfortable around Ilsa and Jackson's openly sexual behaviour and initially frosty towards Tucker's more reserved approaches, though in the latter case she eventually relents. Claire is easily the most intelligent and capable member of the team. In an intentional comment on the sexism of the shows Danger 5 is spoofing, she is largely ignored; Colonel Chestbridge especially takes great pleasure in belittling the usually salient points she raises during briefings.

She is set to marry Tucker at the start of the second series but is killed on the day of her wedding.

Pierre

[edit]

Pierre is of hazy European origin and obsessed with making the team cocktails. There are a series of recurring jokes around the character—wherever the team are sent he seemingly unexpectedly runs into an old acquaintance who knows him by a different name and hints at a mysterious past for Pierre; said acquaintance then dies in his arms partway through the episode, imparting a "perfect" cocktail recipe with their dying words.

Pierre is the easiest-going member of the team and something of a neutral between the headstrong Jackson & Ilsa and the conservative Tucker & Claire. He is also the only member of the team to ever show any sort of emotional reaction to the repeated deaths of most of those unfortunate enough to get involved in a Danger 5 mission. The rest of the team are always oblivious to these moments.

In series 2, Pierre is played by Pacharo Mzembe. The change is never mentioned in the series, even when he goes back in time and interacts with his past self (played by the original actor). Between series 1 and 2, Pierre has become an internationally famous musician. He is widely recognised by the general public and beats Johnny Hitler for the title of Christmas King due to his fame. In the episode "Un Sacco Di Natale", Pierre tells the Nazis disguised as priests that he is Catholic.

Kilroy

[edit]

A sixth member of the team inexplicably introduced partway through the series 1 finale, Kilroy is a cel-animated anthropomorphic dog. His cartoon nature is never mentioned by anyone, nor is his sudden appearance. He largely speaks in hackneyed surfer vernacular until he is fatally shot in the head by Hitler midway through the episode. After imparting a dying cocktail recipe to Pierre he is never seen, mentioned or referenced ever again.

Colonel Chestbridge

[edit]

The team's superior who gives them their missions, which always finish with a reminder to "kill Hitler". He has a bird's head which, in keeping with the show's style of humour, is neither explained nor mentioned by any of the characters. The Colonel displays open irritation and contempt for Claire and grows more irascible as the first series goes on due to the team's failures to kill Hitler and end the war, escalating to using a shotgun to keep order during a briefing.

He is seemingly retired at the start of the second series but is targeted and killed by Hitler.

Production

Development

Danger 5 was created by filmmakers Dario Russo and David Ashby as a follow-up to their viral (2009–2010), which had garnered significant online attention and support from the (SAFC). The duo, operating under their production company Dinosaur Pty Ltd and co-producing with Hedone Productions, leveraged the success of to transition from web content to television, building on their experience with low-budget formats. Development of the series began in 2010, with Russo and Ashby pitching the concept during that year, drawing inspiration from spy thrillers and pulp adventure styles to create a campy, absurd take on narratives. The initial scripting focused on a team of international agents in a stylized, alternate world, emphasizing satirical elements reminiscent of shows like while incorporating retro aesthetics from men's adventure magazines. Following the pitch, SBS One commissioned Danger 5 as a six-part series in , recognizing the creators' track record after Italian Spiderman's popularity. Funding came primarily from SBS, supplemented by SAFC's $269,250 investment through its Producer Equity Scheme, plus $40,000 from funds (Development and Production Investment), along with support from the . Russo and Ashby handled the pilot and series scripting, with Kate Croser joining as producer to oversee the project's expansion into a multi-platform format including an online . Key creative decisions centered on placing the story in an alternate-history extended into the 1960s, where agents repeatedly attempt to assassinate amid outlandish scenarios, while deliberately embracing low-budget absurdity to heighten the comedic . This approach allowed for economical production, such as confining much of the action to a single studio set, and underscored the series' satirical intent without relying on high-end effects. The development phase concluded with in mid-2010, paving the way for filming later that year. For season 2, development began following the success of the first season, shifting the focus to 1980s teen and crime films while retaining the premise with Hitler surviving. Production faced challenges, including a delay in broadcast from late 2014 to January 2015 due to sensitivities surrounding events, though filming wrapped in early 2015.

Filming and design

This location served as the hub for constructing practical sets that evoked the low-fi aesthetic of television, including interiors for spy headquarters and exotic locales reimagined through minimalistic builds. The production embraced a low-budget , relying on physical constructions rather than extensive location shoots to maintain control over the surreal, parody-driven environments. Season 2 filming occurred at the same studios, incorporating expanded sets for 1980s-themed sequences. Special effects were predominantly practical, designed to replicate and exaggerate the limitations of mid-20th-century for comedic effect. Model work featured heavily in action sequences, such as exploding vehicles and buildings crafted from miniatures that were detonated on set using . For instance, in Episode 2 of Series 1, "Lizard Soldiers of the Third Reich," stop-motion animation created like a T-Rex and , built with clay sculptures, ball-and-socket armatures, , and skins over a four-month period. The T-Rex model incorporated a base with a hinged jaw manipulated externally, while its explosion involved a paper mache replica filled with mince and red dye for visceral impact. Minimal CGI was employed, with bluescreen used sparingly to integrate animated elements like a long-necked over a miniature jungle set, ensuring the effects appeared deliberately "cheap" and corny to homage era-specific constraints. Costume and set design drew inspiration from mid-20th-century spy genres, featuring tailored suits, leather jackets, and gadget-laden accessories for the protagonists, contrasted with exaggerated villain attire like Hitler's uniforms. Sets incorporated anachronistic and surreal elements, such as mechanical enhancements for soldiers in Series 1 and neon-infused, vibrant palettes in Series 2 to reflect 1980s homages like . These choices amplified the show's alternate-history absurdity, with production designers focusing on meticulous details—like color-coded outfits matching set backdrops—to enhance the visual without relying on digital augmentation. In , editing emphasized a vintage television style, with applied to evoke faded and added graininess for an authentic retro feel. was integrated for efficiency and humor, including repeated clips of Hitler leaping through a glass window in mismatched contexts, underscoring the show's self-aware cheesiness. complemented this with punchy, era-evoking audio cues, including original scores by co-creator Russo that blended spy-thriller motifs with absurd flourishes, while practical effects like muzzle flashes on models were enhanced through simple lighting and post-sync additions. "Danger 5: " is a five-part series released weekly on from late November to mid-December 2011, produced alongside the main television episodes to introduce the core team and build anticipation for the 2012 SBS One premiere. The series was directed by Dario Russo and produced by and Films, featuring a shorter runtime per episode compared to the televised format, allowing for rapid online dissemination and direct audience interaction through comments and shares. Set in a campy 1960s-inspired alternate , the follows allied spies Jackson, Pierre, and Tucker undercover at the Black Dog bar in , where they attempt to assassinate using guns, poison, plastic explosives, and patriotism during a performance by Madam Julietta. When Hitler's female guards, empowered by a black diamond potion granting bulletproof abilities, thwart the plan and allow Hitler to escape, Allied Command dispatches two new agents, Ilsa and Claire, to motivate the team in tracking Hitler, , and the diamond-smuggling henchwomen known as the Diamond Girls to Nassau for a heist confrontation. This narrative establishes the team's dynamics, blending absurd action with parody elements that define the main series. The ' online format facilitated fan engagement by enabling immediate feedback and viral sharing, serving as a low-budget hype-building tool that teased the full production's scale while testing comedic tone with audiences prior to broadcast. Production emphasized quick turnaround, with episodes using practical effects and minimal CGI to maintain the retro aesthetic on a constrained budget. Related media includes behind-the-scenes commentary tracks for each episode, uploaded to the official Dinosaur YouTube channel in 2014, featuring director Dario Russo and actor David Ashby discussing creative decisions and on-set anecdotes. Promotional featurettes, such as character spotlights, were also released online around the 2012 TV launch to extend the prequel's momentum into the series proper.

These plots incorporate anachronistic elements such as Nazi-trained dinosaurs, giant robots, talking animals, and pop culture parodies, blending with surreal .

Series 2 premise

Series 2 of Danger 5 advances the with a significant time jump to , two decades after the events of the first season, where the Allied team has disbanded following their presumed victory over the Nazis. , having miraculously survived, emerges as the central antagonist once more, now operating from within a neon-drenched, excess-laden interpretation of the world infused with aesthetics and pop culture tropes. The story begins with the shocking assassination of Colonel Chestbridge by Hitler, disguised as during a shopping trip, prompting the of Danger 5 to pursue vengeance and thwart his renewed bid for global domination. The season's conflicts escalate through a series of holiday-infused missions, starting with a and extending into bizarre confrontations against upgraded Nazi forces, including mechanical robot eagles and other high-tech threats reflective of sci-fi influences. Hitler's schemes involve elaborate plots for world conquest, such as experiments targeting new team member Holly—a high senior recruited into the fold—and manipulations of that lead to altered timelines featuring encounters with historical figures in surreal contexts. These arcs incorporate elements like training sequences and cybernetic enhancements, parodying genres from cop thrillers to teen comedies while maintaining the core objective of eliminating Hitler. The shift to the 1980s era alters team dynamics, with members like Tucker exhibiting more unhinged behavior and Jackson relying on quirky new gadgets, such as an advisory rubber ball, amid cultural references to music, , and . This evolution emphasizes personal stakes over wartime duty, as the spies navigate a vibrant, violence-filled world blending retro with absurd humor, all while contending with Hitler's increasingly outlandish strategies.

Fictional world elements

The world of Danger 5 is an alternate history where Adolf Hitler survives World War II and continues his conquests into the 1960s and 1980s, incorporating surreal and anachronistic features. Common elements include dinosaurs weaponized by the Nazis, talking animals such as dogs and robotic eagles that serve as spies or weapons, and bizarre technologies like giant mecha suits and time travel devices. The settings blend historical WWII and Cold War eras with modern pop culture references, creating a low-budget, parody-filled universe where everyday objects and historical events are twisted into comedic, over-the-top scenarios.

Style and themes

Parody elements

_Danger 5 serves as an affectionate parody of 1960s spy fiction, drawing direct homages to series such as Danger Man, The Avengers, and James Bond films by exaggerating core conventions like suave international agents confronting global threats. The show's multinational team of spies—comprising characters from the United States, United Kingdom, France, Russia, and Australia—mirrors the ensemble dynamics of The Avengers while subverting the lone-wolf archetype of James Bond through their frequent incompetence and bickering, often leading to comically failed missions against Adolf Hitler. This setup amplifies tropes like high-stakes espionage in exotic locales, but twists them into absurd scenarios, such as battling Nazi-controlled dinosaurs or thwarting plots involving Eiffel Tower thefts, highlighting the genre's reliance on implausible gadgets and villainous schemes. Exaggerated accents and dialogue further parody the era's stylistic flourishes, with characters delivering campy, over-the-top lines in thick national inflections—such as the Australian agent's laid-back slang clashing with his British counterpart's clipped precision—evoking the multilingual banter of Danger Man episodes. Femme fatales appear as Hitler's seductive bodyguard babes or treacherous French resistance fighters, subverting the Bond girl archetype by turning them into equally inept or monstrous allies of the Nazis, often culminating in slow-motion action sequences that mock the genre's dramatic fight choreography. Title sequences replicate 1960s TV formats with retro fonts, jazzy scores, and freeze-frames, intentionally evoking the formulaic openings of shows like The Man from U.N.C.L.E. to underscore the series' meta-commentary on episodic spy narratives. The series satirizes Cold War-era politics by extending into a perpetual conflict, using Nazis as archetypal villains in place of communist foes, which blends spy thriller clichés with revisionist WWII history for comedic effect. Hitler's schemes, like allying with Japanese robots or ancient Atlanteans, lampoon the genre's geopolitical intrigue and exotic enemy alliances, while the spies' globe-trotting exploits critique the era's imperialistic undertones in Western spy stories. Australian cultural twists infuse the narrative with local humor, such as the team's base in and Tucker's irreverent demeanor, offering a postcolonial subversion of the typically Anglo-American spy trope and grounding the international ensemble in an underdog perspective.

Humor and tone

The humor in Danger 5 is characterized by surreal elements delivered through reactions, where characters respond to outlandish events with unwavering seriousness and , heightening the comedic effect. For instance, team members confront bizarre scenarios such as a superior with an eagle's head or Hitler's unexpected pursuits like dance performances, yet they maintain straight-faced professionalism throughout, treating the absurdity as routine wartime protocol. This approach draws from influences, creating a fever-dream quality that subverts spy genre expectations without breaking the . The series employs an absurdist tone that seamlessly blends , sexual , and comedy, presented without moral commentary or consequence, fostering a chaotic, amoral world. Heavy drinking serves as a recurring team trait, with the French agent often mixing elaborate cocktails amid crises, while casual killing—particularly the relentless directive to assassinate Hitler—occurs with nonchalant efficiency. This mix underscores the show's irreverent wit, where and erotic undertones escalate alongside lethal action, all portrayed in a lighthearted, consequence-free manner that amplifies the ridiculousness. Central to the humor are themes of futility in the protagonists' missions, which satirize heroic spy archetypes through repeated failures and mounting ridiculousness, emphasizing the pointlessness of their endeavors. The Danger 5 team repeatedly thwarts Hitler's schemes only for him to evade capture in increasingly improbable ways, such as escaping via unconventional means, highlighting the Sisyphean nature of their patriotic duty. This pokes fun at the indomitable hero trope by portraying the agents as competent yet perpetually undermined by escalating absurdity, turning potential triumphs into farcical loops. The tone evolves across seasons, shifting from Season 1's retro camp aesthetic—evoking action serials with affectionate cheesiness—to Season 2's embrace of excess, incorporating puerile gags and genre parodies like cop thrillers and high-school comedies. This progression amplifies the , with Season 2 introducing more overt sexual humor and visual excess while retaining the deadpan core, resulting in a bolder, more unhinged that builds on the foundational ridiculousness of the first season.

Production techniques

The production of Danger 5 employed deliberate stylistic choices in cinematography to evoke the look of 1960s television, utilizing static camera setups and obvious miniatures for action sequences to replicate the constrained, low-budget feel of era-specific spy shows. Cinematographer Sam King deconstructed 1960s lighting techniques, incorporating hot-wax lighting with high-wattage redheads and blondies, pronounced backlighting for characters to create halo effects, and technicolor-inspired pastel color schemes while avoiding clashing hues like red and green. These elements, drawn from influences such as Mario Bava's films and 1960s Italian cinema, were shot primarily on high-definition video but filtered to mimic grainy film stock, enhancing the parody of vintage pulp aesthetics without relying on modern digital polish. Sound design emphasized exaggerated foley effects and period-appropriate cues to underscore the show's retro parody, with the entire production dubbed in post-production rather than using on-location audio for greater flexibility in performance and multilingual elements. Sound designer Will Watkins sourced samples from old film soundtracks, incorporating hokey, studio-recorded effects like amplified footsteps and cartoonish impacts to mirror 1960s dubbing practices, while multilingual dialogue—such as German-dubbed lines for Hitler—was meticulously synced to mouth movements for an international, schlocky feel. This approach avoided computer-generated sounds, opting instead for practical foley that amplified the absurdity, as seen in explosive sequences where vintage library music cues punctuated the action with deliberate cheesiness. Editing techniques featured abrupt cuts and reused footage to imitate the episodic structure of adventure series, with title cards and transitional wipes evoking vintage broadcast styles for a meta-commentary on low-production values. Basic sets, such as bars or amphitheaters, were repurposed across episodes to heighten comedic repetition, while the post-dubbed dialogue allowed for filtered, delivery that contrasted the visual chaos, reinforcing the show's dry humor through rhythmic pacing. Intentional flaws, including visible strings on miniatures and occasional set errors, were incorporated as meta-humor to poke fun at B-movie shortcuts, blending practical effects like exploding models with unpolished assembly to authentically capture the charm of underfunded 1960s productions. This low-fi ethos extended to the second season's shift toward aesthetics, where editing maintained quick, neon-infused cuts but preserved the visible artifice to sustain the parody's self-aware tone.

Danger 5 team

The Danger 5 team comprises five elite Allied operatives assembled to combat Axis threats during an alternate , each representing a different nationality and bringing specialized skills to their missions. Led by the American Jackson, the group includes the Russian Ilsa, Australian Tucker, British Claire, and the French , whose collective efforts form the core of the series' action-comedy narrative.

This camaraderie—marked by teasing rivalries, such as Tucker's advances toward Claire or Jackson's clashes with Ilsa's brutality—drives the humor, portraying them as a united against overwhelming odds. Despite constant setbacks, their unwavering commitment to each other highlights themes of Allied solidarity played for comedic effect.

Antagonists

The primary antagonist in Danger 5 is , physically portrayed by Carmine Russo with voice provided by Andreas Sobik, who appears as a recurring, charismatic leading the Nazi forces across both seasons. Depicted as a foul-tempered yet cunning , Hitler survives multiple assassination attempts by the Danger 5 team and drives the central conflict through his elaborate, ever-evolving schemes for global conquest, such as abducting national monuments with zeppelins in the first season or infiltrating society in the second. His portrayal emphasizes comedic incompetence, including wielding a "Nazi guitar" that causes explosions, making him a hell-raising nemesis in the show's style. Supporting Hitler is the Nazi high command, featuring reimagined historical figures in absurd roles. , played by Robert Tompkins, functions as a overseeing grotesque experiments, such as forcing captives to fight for Hitler's entertainment. , portrayed by Brendan Rock and known as the Desert Fox, serves as a bumbling strategist whose tactics often backfire spectacularly. Other figures like and appear in exaggerated, cartoonish capacities, contributing to the villains' over-the-top hierarchy. The antagonists' forces include recurring Nazi soldiers and scientists who execute Hitler's plans with rote efficiency but frequent blunders, alongside surreal minions that heighten the show's absurdity. Examples encompass bulletproof she-Nazis, lizard soldier hybrids engineered for invasion, and diamond-clad female operatives used in deceptive schemes. These henchmen provide through their loyalty to the Nazi cause amid chaotic failures. Collectively, the villains pursue an eternal quest for , blending historical evil with parodic incompetence that underscores the series' satirical tone. Their motivations revolve around totalitarian control, often manifested in ridiculous plots like hybrid armies or robotic enforcers, leading to repeated defeats by the protagonists. This portrayal amplifies the humor by contrasting their grandiose ambitions with mishaps.

Supporting roles

Supporting roles in Danger 5 encompass recurring minor characters and guest appearances that provide operational support, , and episodic flavor to the central team's missions without shifting the focus from the core operatives. Colonel Chestbridge, portrayed by Tilman Vogler across 10 episodes, serves as the team's authoritative handler, delivering mission briefings with a stern demeanor and occasionally intervening in operations; his arc includes a dramatic by Hitler followed by a in season 2. Another recurring figure is Kilroy, an animated canine companion who resides on the team's and aids in rescues, such as attempting to free the captured agents in an underwater adventure, though he meets a fatal end shortly after his introduction. These characters add layers of absurdity and loyalty, enhancing the show's parody of spy tropes through their exaggerated traits and untimely demises. Notable guest stars inject fresh dynamics into individual episodes, often portraying eccentric allies or one-off figures in the team's global escapades. Comedian makes two appearances in season 2, first as a high principal in a undercover operation and later in a that underscores the series' penchant for bizarre transformations. Other guests include portrayals of mission-specific aides, such as navigational experts or local informants encountered in exotic locales, exemplified by figures like the Japanese operative McKenzie (Fumito Arai, 6 episodes), who assists in gathering.

Supporting characters contribute to plot variety by introducing temporary alliances, romantic entanglements, or unexpected twists that propel episode-specific challenges, such as betrayals by double agents or aid from unconventional partners, all while preserving the unchanging Danger 5 lineup. For instance, informants like Kilroy provide pivotal saves in high-stakes scenarios, heightening tension without permanent team alterations. Casting for these roles emphasizes through diverse ethnicities and exaggerated accents, reflecting the show's satirical take on multinational spy ensembles; Australian actors often adopt British, French, or Eastern European inflections to mock genre clichés, as seen in Vogler's clipped delivery for Chestbridge and Arai's nuanced portrayal of McKenzie. This approach fosters inclusivity amid the absurdity, with guests like Micallef leveraging their comedic timing to blend seamlessly into the ensemble's over-the-top world.
