Tartan Tat
★★★★☆ Authentic comedy
Shark Bait Theatre’s Tartan Tat, playing theSpace @ Niddry St for the first two weeks of the Fringe, is a very funny play set in a tourist gift shop on Edinburgh’s Royal Mile.
The Rejects
★★★★☆ Intelligently comic
There is huge promise in both the writing and the performing of The Rejects, from Shark Bait Theatre and New Celts at theSpace on the Mile.
4Play
★★★☆☆ Comedy capers
Comedy is definitely a priority as the four members of Edinburgh playwright collective 4Play bring four pieces of new work to the Traverse stage, much to the delight of a capacity first night audience.
Sister Act
★★★★★ Nun better:
Tuneful, wonderfully acted and with the comic momentum of a juggernaut, Forth Children’s Theatre’s Sister Act at the Edinburgh Tabernacle is almost unimaginably entertaining.
Pippin
★★★★☆ Another Winner:
Gorgeous singing, bags of life – and a stunning array of costumes – make Forth Children’s Theatre’s Pippin, at the Edinburgh Tabernacle to Saturday, another thoroughly entertaining and accomplished production.
