We had the pleasure to chat with the cast and creatives of VETO as well as multi-talented performer Raymond Wilson. VETO are bringing their show ‘Pilgrimage’ to the fringe this year in partnership with Theatre Paradok and Queen Margaret University.
‘Pilgrimage’ follows the story of a disillusioned boy, running from his blasphemous crimes in the woods. He is pursued by the Gods-fearing warden of his village, who must then act as his protector after she finds him mysteriously blinded.
It will be performed at ‘Pilgrimage’ plays at venue 88 from Saturday 19th – Monday 21st August at 14:40. Get tickets here: https://tickets.edfringe.com/whats-on/paradok-platform?day=20-08-2023&performance=88%3A78228&step=times#book

Raymond Wilson spoke to us all about ‘I Hope Your Flowers Bloom’; Flitting between romantic obsession and botanical description, this semi-autobiographical piece by Raymond Wilson offers a raw, moving and genuinely humorous exploration of healthy masculinity, self-worth and working-class access to nature. Through his friendship with Flo and her modern nomadic lifestyle, Raymond attempts to escape the greyness of the Glasgow scheme into Scotland’s natural world, with some unflinching self-reflection along the way. Directed by Fiona Mackinnon.
