Dead Dad Dog
★★★★☆ Welcome revival
John McKay’s 1988 hit comedy Dead Dad Dog returns to the Traverse threatening to be a period piece, but turns out to have a great deal still to say – and is still pretty funny.
An Inspector Calls
★★★★☆ Worryingly compelling:
The revival of a much-garlanded take on J.B. Priestley’s An Inspector Calls at the King’s is wonderfully staged, relevant and more than a little troubling.
Union – Review
✭✭✭✩✩ In rude health
Bawdy, hugely ambitious and almost wilfully uneven, the Lyceum’s world premiere of Union should be applauded for its intentions even if the results are not wholly successful.
Theatre Review – Romeo and Juliet
✭✭✭✭✩ Astonishingly vivid:
Simple, clear and astonishingly vivid, Tony Cownie has taken Shakespeare’s most performed play and, with one brilliant little twist, created a fresh and timely production.
