ROBERT GOLDING to Play at Assembly Roxy Upstairs as Part of Edinburgh Fringe, 8/1-25
By: Devin MacDonald Jul. 24, 2013
An empty restaurant but for two people. A successful married couple sit opposite one another. They are celebrating the opening of their new venture as they wait for a guest to join them. When he arrives he will quietly and confidently lay waste to their comfortable lives and everything they ever believed. They wait... he enters ... and the horror gradually unfolds.
ROBERT GOLDING is the world premiere of a darkly comic tale by acclaimed Welsh playwright Owen Thomas. Nothing is as it seems in a world where dark and unseen forces are in control and behind the seemingly ordinary the sinister is at work.
The creative team behind the 2011 Edinburgh Fringe Hit Richard ParkER (Best International Show - Hollywood Fringe Festival 2012) are back with this haunting brand new work that delves into the nature of conspiracy and claustrophobic paranoia.
ROBERT GOLDING will show as a part of Edinburgh Fringe 2013 t the Assembly Roxy Upstairs from Thursday, 1 August to Sunday 25 August (no show 12 August). Showtime is 14.20.
