Fall into the delirious, unsettling world of Paradise Hotel, Richard Foreman’s cult masterpiece of slapstick anarchy, surreal poetry and existential bite.
A collision of physical comedy, philosophical fragments, and dreamlike terror, Paradise Hotel hurls its characters toward the mythical Hotel Paradise, instantly transformed into the brazen Hotel F&*k, a place both desired and feared. On the horizon shimmers its opposite, Hotel Beautiful Roses, all sweetness and sentiment, sending the characters scattering in panic at the threat of love triumphant. Foreman’s fever dream unfolds with manic energy and surreal humour, collapsing the line between the ridiculous and the profound.
Under Patrick Kennedy’s fearless direction, acclaimed for his striking interpretations of Foreman’s work, Paradise Hotel seizes the intimacy of KXT on Broadway, plunging audiences into a thrilling, visceral carnival of desire and dread.
★★★★ "Kennedy's signature style is a riotous assault of colour and noise held together by enormous chugging energy."
The Stage
★★★★ "A visual feast. Kennedy delivers a masterclass in surreal aesthetics."
