Made in Dagenham

★★☆☆☆ Shiny-edged:
Exhilarating moments and a couple of great individual performances ensure a shiny edge to Encore’s production of Thoroughly Modern Millie at the Brunton to Saturday.
Sister Act
★★★☆☆ Sisters steal it:
Encore are taking to the habit at the Brunton theatre in Musselburgh until Saturday convincing everyone that it’s fun to be a nun!
