Into the Woods
★★★★★ Dark
Bare Productions go hard on Into the Woods, James Lapine and Stephen Sondheim’s popular mashup of fairytales, to expose its utter cruelty and the callousness of many of the favourite pantomime heroes that people the musical.
Grease
★★★★☆ Vibrant
Smart, precise and packing more energy than the Duracell Bunny on pep pills, Allegro’s production of Grease the Musical electrifies the Church Hill Theatre where it is playing all week.
RENT
★★★★★ Passionate
Bare Productions have once again sold out their entire Fringe run before August even started – a remarkable achievement, but one which is entirely justified by the quality of this production of RENT at Paradise in Augustines .
All Shook Up
★★★★☆ Energetic
The Bohemians Lyric Opera Company’s presentation of the Elvis Presley jukebox musical All Shook Up at the Church Hill is a riotous and fun-packed affair.
Legally Blonde – The Musical
★★★★☆ Energetic
Allegro’s version of Legally Blonde – The Musical at the Church Hill Theatre until Saturday is bold, brash and full of impact.
Kinky Boots
★★★★☆ Uplifting
Bare Productions take to the stage at Paradise in Augustine’s this week until Saturday 13 with Kinky Boots, having impressively sold out the entire run by the start of July.
