Michael Daviot
In Horror We Trust
Spookfest’s second scary sojourn:
The Edinburgh Horror Festival returns from this Friday evening, 27 October, with a five night frenzy of foul deeds and frightening theatrics in the lead up to Halloween on Tuesday.
1917: A Phantasmagoria
★★★★★ Essence of Fringe:
Intelligent, driven and ridiculously entertaining, Michael Daviot’s historical one-man-show 1917: A Phantasmagoria is as close to the ideal Fringe show as you could imagine.
1917 revisited
A century isn’t so long in 1917 – A Phantasmagoria:
As the world focusses on the centenary of 1917 in terms of events during the First World War, Edinburgh-based actor and playwright Michael Daviot is looking at the year in a very different light.
Sweet addition
Sweet Venues adds to #EdFringe Offer:
Edinburgh fringe operator Sweet Venues is adding “Sweet Holyrood”, based at the Macdonald Holyrood Hotel, to its offer during the 2017 fringe.
The Horror, The Horror
Edinburgh Horror Fest – first edition:
The inaugural Edinburgh Horror Festival is dragging a quartet of fringe Edinburgh venues down into its netherworld layer for a weekend of devilish theatre, magic, cabaret and comedy from Friday, 28 October 2016.
Nosferatu’s Shadow
✭✭✭✭✩ Clever:
There is a delicate balance between information and entertainment, and between history and contemporary relevance, in Michael Daviot’s Nosferatu’s Shadow at Sweet Grassmarket.
The Lower Depths
✭✭✩✩✩ Depths hidden:
Dark and vicious, Andy Corelli’s take on Gorky’s The Lower Depths for Siege Perilous strikes all the right tones at the Hidden Door, but doesn’t always reveal them as clearly as it might.
Theatre at Previously…
History festival includes rare JM Barrie:
Previously… Scotland’s history festival, boasts a trio of theatre productions as part of its offerings next week, all produced by local shoestring company Black Dingo productions.
Hyde & Seek
✭✭✭✭✩ On a Hyding to something
There’s a little bit of Mr Hyde in all of us. That’s the compelling notion Michael Daviot explores in his one-man show Hyde and Seek at C Venues.
New Venue for Hyde & Seek
Hyde and Seek, Michael Daviot’s show which has been plagued by noise-bleed at C-Nova on Cockburn street, is to move to a new building within the C family of venues.
