Sunshine on Leith
★★★★☆ High quality
The Bohemians Lyric Opera Company’s production of Sunshine on Leith at the Church Hill Theatre is tuneful, colourful, emotionally direct and builds up a considerable head of steam.
School Days & Matilda Jr
School Days: ★★★★★ Outrageously good
Matilda Jr: ★★★☆☆ Rebellious
The LYAMC are back where they belong: on stage at the Church Hill Theatre in a double bill combining a portmanteau concert with the junior version of the musical of Roald Dhal’s Matilda.
Edinburgh Gang Show 2019
★★★★☆ Feast of dance:
The lungs and the legs of the over 100 main cast of the Edinburgh Gang Show are made to work overtime in this year’s show, at the King’s to Saturday, which is a veritable cornucopia of song and dance.
Edinburgh Gang Show 2018
★★★★☆ Spectacular:
Epic in scope, local in coverage and inclusive in its effect, the 59th Edinburgh Gang Show is a wonderful spectacle.
Showcase 2018
★★★☆☆ Fun and Eclectic:
The biggest songs in rock, pop and musical theatre are celebrated in Showcase 2018 on at the Church Hill Theatre until Saturday
All Shook Up
★★★☆☆ Energetic:
There is a spirited tunefulness to LYAMC’s All Shook Up that makes it cheerfully compelling despite occasional raggedness.
