The Paper Cinema, create extraordinary, magical worlds with vivid pen and ink drawings, puppetry, and a treasure trove of acoustic and electronic sounds. What happens at the accidental meeting of inkblots, photocopies, cardboard, angle-poise lamps, the occasional table, video technology, a laptop and a banana box? A cast of hand-drawn marionettes, devised from ink drawings in artist Nic Rawling's sketchbook, is magically brought to life by the Paper Cinema. The show is an adaptation of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's The Lost World, commissioned by Edinburgh City of Literature. It is partnered with the charming and surreal tale of Night Flyer - a wistful love story of sorts - which won awards and 4 star reviews at Edinburgh Fringe '08.
