Moving On: A New Musical
★★★★☆ Touching
Ghosties and ghoulies and interpersonal sibling drama abound in Moving On, a new musical from Happy Sad Productions playing at Braw’s Hill Street Street Theatre for the first half of the Fringe.
Little Red Robin Hood
★★★☆☆ Clever
Little Red Robin Hood from Happy Sad Productions is a clever mash-up of Little Red Riding Hood, Robin Hood, and Goldilocks and the Three Bears, with elements of other pantos thrown in for good measure.
Come Die With Me: The Murder Mystery Musical Parody
★★★☆☆ Exuberant
Happy Sad’s Come Die With Me: The Murder Mystery Musical Parody, at Just the Tonic @ The Grassmarket Centre, is often as unwieldy and potentially confusing as its title. However, the end result is undoubtedly good-hearted and good fun.
The 25th Annual Putnam Spelling Bee
★★★★☆ Satisfyingly goofy
In The 25th Annual Putnam Spelling Bee, at the RSE Theatre for the final two weeks of the Fringe, Happy Sad Productions attempt to make sense of this quirky musical based on that particularly American Institution – the spelling bee.

★★★☆☆ Folie á deux
