A Play A Pie and A Pint
PPP Made in China
★★★☆☆ Heartfelt
Made in China by Alice Clark, the latest Play, Pie and a Pint from Oran Mor at the Traverse, is a carefully written and excellently acted piece. Unfortunately it does not always satisfy as a drama.
PPP: He Who Opens the Door
★★★☆☆ Spirited
Current circumstances give He Who Opens The Door by Nadia Nezhdana, the latest Play, Pie and a Pint from Oran Mor in association with Aberdeen Performing Arts at the Traverse, a chilling topicality.
PPP: Daniel Getting Married
★★★☆☆ Fragmentary
Daniel Getting Married, the latest Play, Pie and a Pint from Oran Mor at the Traverse, goes ahead in extremely trying circumstances. The result is far more coherent than anyone has any right to expect.
PPP: Man’s Best Friend
★★★★☆ Poignant
Jonathan Watson turns in a remarkable performance in Man’s Best Friend, the latest Play, Pie and a Pint from Oran Mor at the Traverse.
PPP: I’m Dissolving My Love In A Bath Of Acid
★★★☆☆ Absurd
Oozing with comic brio, I’m Dissolving My Love In A Bath Of Acid at the Traverse is a wonderfully performed and energetic if ultimately superficial piece.
PPP: Ten Things To Do Before You Die
★★★☆☆ Poignant performances
There is much to recommend in Dani Heron’s Ten Things To Do Before You Die, the latest Play, Pie and a Pint at the Traverse. Both humorous and emotional, the production manages to overcome drawbacks in its script.
PPP: Oscar
★★★★☆ Perfectly formed
A funny, touching and tremendously acted musical, Oscar by Brian James O’Sullivan heralds the welcome return of Oran Mor’s A Play, A Pie and A Pint to the Traverse.
