The Addams Family
★★★★★ Spookily entertaining:
Spooky, funny and entertaining, Bare Productions have brought back to life one of the most dysfunctional family’s in the world in the kooky Addams Family musical at this year’s Fringe.
Sweet Charity
★★★★★ Charity ball:
The minute you walk in the joint, you can see Sweet Charity at the Church Hill Theatre until Saturday, is a show of distinction.
Bohemians Reimagined
★★★★☆ Entertaining:
The Bohemians add a new twist to some of musical theatre’s most-loved songs in Bohemians Reimagined at the Stockbridge Church.
You’re a Good Man Charlie Brown
★★★★☆ Fun from the Peanuts gallery:
A classic family musical is revived by a capital company at Paradise in Augustines, as newcomers Bare Productions take on You’re A Good Man Charlie Brown.
Spring Awakening
★★★★☆ Spring in the step:
Dark and bruising in many parts, TBC Productions has created a properly adult production of alt rock musical Spring Awakening, which is at the Festival Studio to Saturday.
From Broadway to Hollywood
★★★☆☆ Hearing impaired:
A few minutes into this concert by The Bohemians Lyric Opera Company at St Cuthbert’s Church I wanted to walk out. But I wanted to take the singers and musicians with me.

EPT’s Panto in Pictures:
Edinburgh People’s Theatre is rocking the Church Hill Theatre this week until Saturday 17 December 2016, with its four star production of Goldilocks and the Three Bears.
Goldilocks & The Three Bears
★★★★☆ Just right:
Tuneful, funny and an utterly traditional pantomime, EPT’s Goldilocks and the Three Bears comes out with all guns blazing and satisfies completely.
EPT go for Gold
65th consecutive panto for EPT
When Edinburgh People’s Theatre take to the Church Hill Theatre stage this Friday, 9 December 2016 with Goldilocks and the Three Bears, it will be the company’s 65th consecutive pantomime.
Loserville
★★★☆☆ Energetic:
There is sufficient speed and energy to Allegro’s Loserville at the Church Hill to make for a satisfactory time, despite what can only be seen as the most unpromising source material.
