This coming Friday, the first of March 2024, the Musselburgh Amateur Musical Association will learn the name of their latest production. Not much unusual in that.
Made in Dagenham
★★★★★ Undisputed excellence
An industrial dispute doesn’t sound the most promising material for a musical, but Made in Dagenham at The Brunton Theatre made my week.
The Sound of Music
★★★★☆ Melodic
The steeply-raked seats of the Brunton are alive with the Sound of Music this week as Musselburgh Amateur Musicals Association bring the singing Von Trapp family to Musselburgh.
Chess
★★★☆☆ Re-opening gambit
Musselburgh Amateur Musicals Association make a spirited return to live with a production of Chess at the Brunton which hits all the high and the low notes while making a solid fist of the tricky ones in between.

MAMA’s Revue 2020 for Brunton Theatre:
The Musselburgh Amateur Musical Association returns to the Brunton Theatre this week for their annual musical Revue.
Blitz!
★★★★☆ Explosive:
The Blitz spirit is alive and well and living in Musselburgh. More particularly, the Brunton Theatre, which is where you’ll find Lionel Bart’s unjustly forgotten follow-up to Oliver!, Blitz!.
Blitzing the Brunton
MAMA take on Bart’s WW2 musical:
Musselburgh Amateur Musical Association promise old-fashioned knees-up entertainment, delivered with a contemporary edge in their production of Blitz!, opening at the Brunton on Thursday for three nights only.
MAMA Annual Revue 2019
★★★☆☆ Dramatic:
Starting as it means to go on Musselburgh Amateur Musical Association’s Annual Revue 2019 kicks off with a song from The Greatest Showman – but not the one which became ubiquitous over the panto season.
