Seumas Cross
Dogfight
★★★☆☆ Heartfelt
Dogfight, from Thistle N’ Thorn at Paradise in Augustines for the Fringe’s first week, is a melodic and cleverly staged production.
The Sound of Music
★★★★☆ Big sings
Huge performances, memorable staging and a strong message make Southern Light’s 125th anniversary production, The Sound of Music at the Festival Theatre, a fabulous night out.
13 The Musical
★★★★☆ Heartfelt:
Captivate Theatre returns to this year’s Fringe and Gilded Balloon’s Rose Street Theatre with another fun and exciting production in the coming of age musical, 13 The Musical.
Oliver!
★★☆☆☆ Disconnected:
A pair of very fine interpretations, backed by a company intent on performing at the peak of their abilities mark out an Oliver! which aims high but suffers from the constraints of its own conceit.
Les Miserables School Edition
★★★☆☆ Spirited
Well sung and staged with energy and economy, Captivate Theatre’s Les Miserables has considerable drive.
