Paradok Casting Call
Open Call for EdFringe theatre production:
Edinburgh-based company Theatre Paradok has put out a casting call for its EdFringe 2018 production of Like Drowning, which will run during week three of the fringe, August 20 – 25.
Pomona
★★★☆☆ Mixed bag:
Flirting with darkness, Theatre Paradok’s Pomona – at Summerhall until Saturday – is well performed, but ultimately more staid than it first appears.
Bare Threads
★★★☆☆ Expressive experimentation:
Bare Threads, Theatre Paradok’s production at theSpace on Niddry Street, is often fascinating and occasionally beautiful.
Bare Threads Casting Call
Paradok issue #EdFringe open call:
Edinburgh’s Paradok Theatre has put out an open casting call for Bare Threads, its production for this year’s fringe 2017.
The Nether
★★★☆☆ Morally contentious
Problematic, simply because of its subject matter, The Nether is given a solid and suitably powerful production by student company Paradok Theatre at Checkpoint to Saturday.
Paradok Casting Call
Scottish debut for The Nether:
Edinburgh amateur company Paradok has issued an open casting call for its Scottish premiere of Jennifer Haley’s “provocative” play, The Nether.
Dark Tales
★★☆☆☆ Jumpy
Haunting raw material and a fairly straightforward telling from Theatre Paradok give a good account of this pair of classic Victorian ghost stories, at the Banshee Labyrinth until Thursday.
Lippy
★★★☆☆ Ambitious:
By turns absurd, winsome and tragic, Theatre Paradok’s Lippy at theSpace on the Mile is a challenging, bleakly funny and ultimately impenetrable affair.
The Hothouse
★★★☆☆ Sweltering:
The black humour of the absurd runs through Theatre Paradok’s welcome staging of Pinter’s The Hothouse, at the Assembly Roxy to Saturday.
