Annie
★★★★☆ Spirited & Heartwarming:
Captivate Theatre’s excellent production of Annie – on until August 14 at the Rose Theatre – brings a lively and contagious enthusiasm to the Fringe.
Assessment
★★★☆☆ Chillingly relevant:
Assessment is a chilling exploration of the future of pensions in a time of austerity, from Shows on a Shoestring at the Rose Theatre for the full fringe.
Wedding Fever
★★★★☆ Cavalcade of laughs:
Huge fun and some genuinely good comic acting are to be found in Edinburgh People’s Theatre’s Wedding Fever.
Home
★★★★☆ Truthful:
Home, by Raised Voices at the Space on North Bridge, is a genuine, moving and vital piece of theatre.
The Last Queen of Scotland
★★★☆☆ Urgent:
There is undeniable promise in The Last Queen of Scotland. It is told in a voice largely absent from the stage, and presents a story which seems to have been largely forgotten, but remains desperately contemporary in so many ways.
