Augustine United Church
The Pirates of Penzance
★★★☆☆ Piratical
The University of St. Andrews Gilbert & Sullivan Society brings one of their namesake’s most popular and enduring operettas to the Fringe with The Pirates of Penzance.
No Spray No Lay
Work in Progress
What a piece of fun is to be had with No Spray No Lay, a new musical staged as a work-in-progress in the decidedly fringe-flavoured lower hall of the Augustine United Church for four performances only.
Schism
★★★☆☆ Thoughtful
There is plenty to ponder in Alex Cook’s intriguing new play, Schism, for Broadsword theatre, which is staged in the bowels of Augustine United Church for four performances only, ending on Monday 23.
The Roses of Eyam
★★★★☆ Unexpected insights
Disconcertingly relevant, the EUTC’s production of Don Taylor’s The Roses Of Eyam at the Augustine United Church until Sunday provides unexpected insights into our own plague years.
Julius Caesar
★★☆☆☆ Mid-table:
A football-themed Julius Caesar at Augustine United Church pitches Shakespeare against the world of agents, bungs and FIFA, but neither can be said to come out the winner.
