Church Hill Theatre
School Days & Matilda Jr
School Days: ★★★★★ Outrageously good
Matilda Jr: ★★★☆☆ Rebellious
The LYAMC are back where they belong: on stage at the Church Hill Theatre in a double bill combining a portmanteau concert with the junior version of the musical of Roald Dhal’s Matilda.
The End of Eddy (EIF)
★★★★☆ Enthusiastic
The End of Eddy’s unflinching examination of small-town prejudice is done with verve and humour at the Church Hill Theatre as part of this year’s Edinburgh International Festival.
Enchanted April
★★★★☆ Accomplished
There is a wistful nostalgia almost built in to Threepenny Theatricals’ Enchanted April, which is at the Church Hill Theatre until Saturday.
A Tomb With A View
★★★☆☆ Ridiculous
Cheerfully ludicrous and staged with considerable craft, Edinburgh People’s Theatre’s production of A Tomb With A View is thoroughly entertaining.
Tomb Hopping
EPT get farcical with Norman Robbins
Edinburgh People’s Theatre return to the Church Hill Theatre this week with a production of A Tomb with a View, from Wednesday to Saturday, following the success of the Men Should Weep back in March.
The Importance of Being Earnest
★★★☆☆ Perspicacious
The Edinburgh Makars return to the Church Hill theatre with a bounce in their step for three performances of a nicely juicy production of The Importance of Being Earnest.
EPT Open Call for Tomb
Casting Call for A Tomb with A View
Edinburgh People’s Theatre has put out an open call for amateur performers to join the company for its May 2022 production of A Tomb With A View, to be staged at the Church Hill Theatre.
Men Should Weep
★★★★☆ Timely
Seemingly endlessly delayed by Covid, Edinburgh People’s Theatre’s production of Men Should Weep finally takes to the Church Hill stage. The end result is carefully observed and has considerable emotional power.
EPT Won’t Weep
Men Should Weep makes the stage – eventually
Of the many productions which fell foul of the Covid lockdowns, Edinburgh People’s Theatre’s production of Men Should Weep was perhaps the most unlucky not to have made it to the stage on time.
The One Acts Are Back!
SCDA One Act Festival is this week
