EPT

EPT’s windy bottom
Has beans not has-beens in Panto land:
Edinburgh People’s Theatre doesn’t give a hill of beans for modern turns on panto tradition, just the usual bag of magic ones, as the company prepares the Church Hill Theatre for Jack and the Beanstalk, its 66th consecutive pantomime.

Wedding Fever
★★★★☆ Cavalcade of laughs:
Huge fun and some genuinely good comic acting are to be found in Edinburgh People’s Theatre’s Wedding Fever.

The Diary of Anne Frank
★★★★☆ Necessary:
Combining delicacy, steel and emotional truth, Edinburgh People’s Theatre’s production of The Diary of Anne Frank is both timely and accomplished.

The Importance of Being Earnest
★★★☆☆ Judicious:
There is a studied air to Edinburgh People’s Theatre’s production of The Importance of Being Earnest that pays dividends, but also brings disadvantages.

Being Earnest
EPT play Wilde at the Church Hill:
Edinburgh People’s Theatre is bringing one of the best loved and best known plays in English (outside Shakespeare), back to the Church Hill Theatre.

Bothered and Bewildered
★★★★☆ Hugely affecting:
Combining laughter and tears, all utterly genuine, Edinburgh People’s Theatre’s production of Bothered and Bewildered at the Church Hill is thoroughly successful.

EPT Workshops
Act Too: Acting workshops for amateur performers:
Edinburgh People’s Theatre is organising Act Too, a series of monthly acting workshops at its club premises at Mayfield Gardens.

Church Hill at 50
Last call for memorabilia:
As the Church Hill Theatre approaches its Golden Jubilee with a launch event on Wednesday 16 September 2015, organisers are making a last call for memorabilia.

The Fairmer Wants A Wife
✭✭✭✭✩ Warm and funny:
There is nothing remotely groundbreaking about EPT’s The Fairmer Wants A Wife at Mayfield Church. What is provided is a thoroughly enjoyable, very well presented piece of Scottish comedy.
