The Garden of Delight
★★★☆☆ Scenic:
Making perfect use of one the Fringe’s most idyllic venues, Theatre Alba’s The Garden of Delights is a promenade tale with a strong environmental twist for younger children.
Nosferatu’s Shadow
✭✭✭✭✩ Clever:
There is a delicate balance between information and entertainment, and between history and contemporary relevance, in Michael Daviot’s Nosferatu’s Shadow at Sweet Grassmarket.
Baba Yaga – junior review
✭✭✭✭✩ Exciting
Junior Review by Cora Dibdin
Baba Yaga at Duddingston Kirk gardens was magical for everyone.
Baba Yaga (And The Girl With The Kind Heart)
✭✭✭✭✩ Spine tingling:
Magnificently malevolent when it needs to be, Theatre Alba’s take on the great Russian folk tale Baba Yaga thrills and frightens in equal measure as it promenades round Dr Neil’s Garden in Duddingston.
The Lower Depths
✭✭✩✩✩ Depths hidden:
Dark and vicious, Andy Corelli’s take on Gorky’s The Lower Depths for Siege Perilous strikes all the right tones at the Hidden Door, but doesn’t always reveal them as clearly as it might.
