Becky Hope-Palmer
Lyceum Youth Call Out
Open call for Seven Against Edinburgh
The Lyceum’s youth theatre has put out an open call for a dozen young people aged 16 to 21 for its production of Becky Hope-Palmer’s new play with songs, Seven Against Edinburgh, to be staged in April 2022.
PPP: Celestial Body
★★★★☆ Brooding
The return of A Play, A Pie and A Pint to the Traverse with Morna Pearson’s Celestial Body, which runs to Saturday, is certainly something to celebrate.
Nurturing talent
Traverse Hothouse response to explosion of local productions:
This August, almost 90 Edinburgh-based productions appeared at the fringe – more than ever before. While the amateur, professional and youth companies were present as usual, it was in Edinburgh’s unfunded, shoestring companies that the real growth was obvious.
Buffer
★★★☆☆ Buff enough:
There’s huge fun to be had in Thrive Theatre’s Buffer at The Space on North Bridge – and some deeply felt emotion too.
