That's fine http://www.alledinburghtheatre.com/volpone-grads-review-edfringe-2017/ 1/7 1/30/2018 Volpone : All Edinburgh Theatre.com The story centres around Volpone, a rich old man who desires to become even richer. With the help of his servant Mosca, he sets out to deceive the nobility of Venice as they shower him in gifts believing he is on his deathbed and about to leave them his wealthy estate. Alastair Smith as Volpone. Pic: J Gordon Hughes Buoyed by their success, the pair even manage to persuade the merchant Corvino to offer up his beautiful wife in order to bring Volpone back to health. Martin Foreman directs his new adaptation of Ben Johnson, updating the original 17th century script to the 19th century and giving a lot more emphasis to physical and visual comedy. And, in another variation, two of the main characters have changed gender. The Best Tours, Trips & Tickets in Edinburgh: Book your activities online now Ad GetYourGuide Book Now The role of Volpone’s maidservant Mosca is now played by a woman. Vanashree Thapliyal is superb as his sidekick in her ruthless desire to scam as many people as possible out of their fortune. The wise but doddery Corbaccio is now Corbaccia and Hilary Davies is comical as the frail and very hard of hearing wealthy woman who wants nothing more than to become heir to Volpone’s fortune, but muddles up almost everything she hears. scams Alastair Smith’s portrayal of the cunning fraudster Volpone is excellent as he moves from the comical scenes where he pretends to be dead to jumping around the stage with excitement as his scams deepen. His pairing with Thapliyal as Mosca is perfect, and two bounce off each other wonderfully as they work their magic to rip off Corvino, played by Stuart Townley, and Voltore, played by Chris Pearson. Corbaccia (Hilary Davies) tempts Mosca (Vanashree Thapliyal), Pic J Gordon Hughes The three judges (Siobhan McGovern, Richard Godden and Beverley Wright) provide lots of laughs during the courtroom scenes, and with all the main cast on stage trying to lie their way out of various scams, the scenes become the highlight of the show. Of course, the court eventually sees through the lies and Volpone gets his comeuppance in the end. With over 60 years of experience, the Grads certainly know a thing or two about theatre. Their Volpone is an thoroughly enjoyable show that will keep you on your toes and have you laughing too.

Past Shows (13-15) 3 Date / August 2009 Icarus Theatre Collective and Original Theatre Company co-present national tour of Shakespeare’s Othello Othello, Moor of Venice By William Shakespeare Co-Produced & Directed by Max Lewendel Produced by Alastair Whatley Othello is a legend in his own lifetime, noble, brave, victorious. Honest Iago fuels his venom with malignance and hateful contempt. Poignant, intense, heartbreaking ; Othello mercilessly explores every inch of the human condition. Following on from the success of Shakespeare’s R&J and Kill Bill Macbeth, South Hill Park Arts Centre presents a major new production of Shakespeare’s great domestic tragedy co-produced with Icarus Theatre Collective and Original Theatre Company. Othello’s world will be brought vividly to life as a live string quartet and a stunning ensemble cast combine with some of literature’s most vibrant language and characters. A dangerous tale of ambition, jealousy and love will unfurl as Shakespeare’s classic tale of deception hurtles to its dramatic and poignant conclusion. Producer Alastair Whatley explains that, “After exploring Romeo and Juliet with school boys and Macbeth with Tarantino we have this year married Shakespeare with live music to the most astonishing effect. It took months of casting to find the actors who could also play the string instruments to such high standards.” The play stars Vinta Morgan as Othello, a regular actor for The Royal Shakespeare Company he has most recently finished playing in Romeo and Juliet in Stratford Upon Avon, and the renowned Maltese actor Christopher Dingli as Iago.
  • Schools Programme

    Schools Programme

    Schools Programme WELCOME A recent study found that children who regularly attended theatre with their school had higher aspirations and better hopes about their future lives. This news sent my heart soaring as this is what this job is all about! The productions presented this year are surprising and eclectic, taking the spectator along visually interesting pathways. The works include a wide variety of theatrical genres from spoken text to puppetry, from dance theatre and musical explorations to acrobatics. Many of the productions are non-text based making them accessible to a broader audience. Central to the Festival are four exciting shows by Scotland based companies as well as a regional focus on Flanders, the Dutch-speaking northern part of Belgium, one of the world’s leaders in producing innovative theatre and dance for young audiences. We have also extended the dates of the Festival to accommodate the increased demand from schools with three international productions opening in the week prior to the main Festival week. In line with our mission, this will allow more children access to high quality theatre. I hope that the 2020 Edinburgh International Children’s Festival is full of special moments for you and your students. Exquisitely theatrical experiences that encourage children and young people to wish, desire and aspire beyond their own lives and immediate neighbourhoods, into their potential future selves. Focus on Flanders supported by: Noel Jordan Festival Director Beyond the Festival: • Creative learning project Imaginate

They range from prominent and highly distinctive buildings which give character and expression to our streetscapes, through to near-hidden structures which nonetheless frequently conceal wonderfully decorative interiors. Each has its own history, its own personality, its own triumphs and tragedies.
