Graduates at Cadogan Hall, review
April 10, 2021

“As you climb your ladder of success, reach down and pull others along with you” seems like an appropriate quote to sum up Ameena Hamid, Liam Gartland and Alice Croft’s …


The Weatherman, Park Theatre, review
August 22, 2019

Eugene O'Hare's jarring, disturbing and often amusing exploration of London's underclass and its propensity for malice when there's money to be made - The Weatherman - is excellent. Photography: Piers Foley A …


Queen of the Mist, Charing Cross Theatre, review
August 20, 2019

Michael John LaChiusa's Queen of the Mist tells a captivating story and is a refreshing musical shift away from the mainstream, but this transfer from Pint of Wine Theatre Company …


A Table Tennis Play, Underbelly Cowgate, review
August 16, 2019

It’s a rainy weekend in a country house outside London. In a dark room full of old stuff (including a ping-pong table), a woman and her partner are packing. They …

Saga, a bilingual play adapted from Ibsen’s A Dream Play, sees God’s daughter descend to Earth in search of love - but she what she finds down there is nothing …


Bystanders, Summerhall, review
August 15, 2019

Cardboard Citizens' Bystanders is not a verbatim play, because verbatim would prove difficult with a subject like this (where many individuals involved are no longer with us). Some parts are …


Conspiracy, Underbelly Cowgate, review
August 15, 2019

Though the underlying message of Barrel Organ's Conspiracy is cryptic, it sure is a lot of fun - leading the audience down rabbit holes and taking genuine risks. We see buildings, …


Macbeth, C Venues, review
August 14, 2019

A one-woman version of Macbeth is already an interesting concept - and here, Korean theatre company Choin's concept translates the Scottish Play's protagonist into an actor obsessed with the play …

Beat, Pleasance Dome, review
August 13, 2019

Beat contains masterful acting, exquisite drumming by its performer and invites everyone to accept that some people understand the world differently. In SiT Productions' Beat, young Alfie (Daniel Bellus) does not …


Songs in the Key of Cree, CanadaHub @ King’s Hall, review
August 13, 2019

A lovely jazz concert filled with some in-between banter, Songs in the Key of Cree is an event to enjoy with a glass of wine. Tomson Highway - a leading …


BalletBoyz: Them/Us, Underbelly Bristo Square, review
August 13, 2019

Even if it’s their Edinburgh debut, the award-winning all-male company BalletBoyz are anything but newbies in their double bill Them/Us. We're presented with a strong cast of six who explore …


Taiwan Season: Fish, Summerhall, review
August 13, 2019

Shinehouse Theatre's Fish (part of Summerhall's Taiwan Season) is essentially a storytelling piece in which puppets have little importance, regardless of the effort that went into the detailed puppetry. It's …


Sh!t Theatre Drink Rum with Expats, Summerhall, review
August 13, 2019

It’s drunken. It’s political. Sh!t Theatre Drink Rum with Expats marks the return of the super-talented duo to Summerhall, with a new production originally developed in Malta as a Valletta …


Hyde and Seek, Underbelly Cowgate, review
August 12, 2019
