Top 5 Theatre Events in June

Feature by Gareth K Vile | 18 May 2008

Nederlands Dans Theater 2
EFT 10-11 June
Theatre Royal, Glasgow 20-21 June
After the first team in April, here come the juniors: still technically gifted, still challenging the boundaries of dance, only younger.

The Infinite Pleasures of the Great Unknown
6-7 June, Tramway
Bock and Vincenzi celebrate the death of reality in a play that appears stuck inside an infinite regress. Confusing, ecstatic and stunning: business as usual at the fixed up Tramway, then.

The Red Room
13-14 June, Traverse
Al Seed’s recent show saw him move into storytelling, away from his grotesque physical theatre. Now he teams up with David Hughes Dance Company to retell Poe’s Masque of the Red Death: a restless, daring performer.

Snap Rhythm and Rhyme
20-21 June Tron, Glasgow
Multi-media extravaganza featuring classical experimentalists Paragon Ensemble, Street Level Photoworks and the performance poetry of Chromatic Voices: is this the first hint that the Tron is getting hip?

Les Parents Terribles
7-21 June, Dundee Rep
Dundee Rep takes on the French avant-garde with this surreal tragi-comedy. Expect laughter, philosophy and intense family dysfunction.
