ArounD the WorlD in 80 ToyS
Thaddeus Phillips
Summerhall 6–31 Aug (not 17, 24)

A surprising hybrid of theatre and film that is at once highly theatrical and wonderfully cinematic. Paris, 1925. In a tiny toy shop inside the Montparnasse train station, film and special effects pioneer Georges Méliès, now forgotten, faces eviction. A toy comes to life. Using hidden cameras, a movie screen, miniatures and magic, Georges creates an epic cinematic universe and voyage that leads to his rediscovery. Theatrical wizard Thaddeus Phillips 'could have been a great silent-movie comedian' (New York Times) and 80 eclectic vintage toys star in this visually stunning tour de force.
