Paradok Platform 2025 Presents Russian Roulette
★★★☆☆ Brimming with potential
Russian Roulette, one of three pieces of new writing from Edinburgh University’s experimental theatre company Theatre Paradok, is an interesting, dystopian look at relationships and systems of oppression it runs at the Bedlam for the final five nights of the Fringe.
Paradok Platform: Unwelcome
★★★☆☆ Intimate
Brooke Jessop’s new play Unwelcome is a textured, immersive work drawing the relationships of a young gay man in 1980s London, against the backdrop of Section 28.
The End of the Line
★★★★☆ Feelgood existentialism
The End of the Line – a feelgood apocalypse comedy at the Edinburgh University Theatre Company’s Bedlam Theatre until 10 August – gives dynamic 1980s vibes, both in its power pop soundtrack and nuclear annihilation storyline.
