Skirt

Can women really have it all? is the question on everyone’s minds in Skirt, Claire Wood’s thought-provoking play for the Edinburgh Graduate Theatre Company at the Royal Scots Club.
Casting call beyond the Fringe
Grads audition dates for November show:
The Grads have announced July 2018 audition dates for their production of Samuel Adamson’s 2007 adaptation of Pedro Almodovar’s movie, All About My Mother.
Grads announce 2018 shows
Almodovar, Shakespeare and Wood for EGTG:
The Edinburgh Graduate Theatre Group has announced its 2018 productions with four full length shows added to its entries to the SCDA’s one act competition.
Beachy Head
★★★★☆ Effecting
Intense but bitty, the Grads production of Beachy Head – at Assembly Roxy to Saturday – gets right to the heart of Dan Rebellato and Analogue Theatre’s filmic script.
The Wonderful World of Dissocia
✭✭✭✭✭ Heartbreaking escapism
It’s not every day that a show comes along that can profoundly affect you. The Wonderful World of Dissocia from the Grads is one such rare gem; it is charming, enchanting and poignant.
Review – Jerusalem
★★★★★ Brave and timely:
There’s a rich, dense texture to the Grads Scottish premiere of Jerusalem, at the Adam House Theatre until Saturday. It has a mythic feel inspired by Blake’s hymn Jerusalem, the text of which frames the piece as if it were being stalked by Gog and Magog.
