Alter Ego
★★★☆☆ Humorous
Alter Ego by Tom Casling, from Saughtonhall Drama Group at Saughtonhall United Reformed Church, is a comedy with poignant moments, performed with diligence and wit.
Cock O’ The North
★★★★☆ Fizzing
There is a great evening to be had at Saughtonhall United Reform Church, where the drama company is staging a snappy and positively fizzing production of Cock O’ The North until Saturday 13.
Surprise Package
★★★☆☆ Brightly cheerful:
Surprise Package, Saughtonhall Drama Group’s comedy at Saughtonhall United Reformed Church, is garishly old-fashioned and very silly, but put together with genuine care.
Nightmare
★★★☆☆ Oddly enjoyable:
A frankly implausible plot, that breaks several of the cardinal rules of crime fiction, is largely overcome by the committed performances in Saughtonhall Drama Group’s Nightmare.
A Fistful of Mondays
★★★★☆ Yee-ha!
Low-key but satisfying, Saughtonhall Drama Group’s A Fistful of Mondays which has a limited run to Saturday is attractively humorous.
Cheshire Cats
★★★★★ Great Big Grins:
Life-affirming and hugely funny, Cheshire Cats at Saughtonhall United Reformed Church is a rare treat indeed.
Comedy Double Bill
✭✭✭✩✩ Well timed:
Staged with real care and featuring more than the required number of laughs, Saughtonhall Drama Group’s double bill of one-act comedies provides an enjoyable evening.
