Men Should Weep
★★★★☆ Timely
Seemingly endlessly delayed by Covid, Edinburgh People’s Theatre’s production of Men Should Weep finally takes to the Church Hill stage. The end result is carefully observed and has considerable emotional power.

It Runs In The Family
★★★★☆ Like a hurricane:
There are breezy comedies – and then there is Edinburgh People’s Theatre’s It Runs In The Family, which soon reaches gale force and stays there.

The Cemetery Club
★★★★☆ Gravely good:
The Cemetery Club is a low-key, deeply traditional play, but in the hands of Edinburgh People’s Theatre it has a gentle resonance that is rather affecting.

Grave comedy for Church Hill
EPT present Menchell favourite:
Edinburgh People’s Theatre return to the Church Hill Theatre this week with four performances of Ivan Menchell’s late Eighties comedy The Cemetery Club.

Cambusdonald Royal
★★★★☆ Knockout knockabout
Mayfield Salisbury Church (Venue 11): Fri 3–Sat 18 Aug 2018
Review by Hugh Simpson
There is an air of freshness and fun to Cambusdonald Royal from Edinburgh People’s Theatre at Mayfield Salisbury Church.

Ten Times Table
★★★★☆ Accomplished:
Ten Times Table, Edinburgh People’s Theatre’s first production of their 75th anniversary year, displays commendable skill and attention to detail in a production that is both funny and involving.

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.

Goldilocks pictured
EPT’s Panto in Pictures:
Edinburgh People’s Theatre is rocking the Church Hill Theatre this week until Saturday 17 December 2016, with its four star production of Goldilocks and the Three Bears.

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.
