Caryl Churchill
Escaped Alone
★★★★☆ Environmental dystopia
Following its Scottish premiere at The Tron earlier this month Escaped Alone, Caryl Churchill’s dystopian play that had its UK premiere at the Royal Court in 2016, comes to the Traverse for five performances only.
The After-Dinner Joke
★★★☆☆ Serious funny
Televisual origins and the passing of time have made much of The After-Dinner Joke, from New Celts and Agree to Disagree at theSpace on the Mile, a curiosity rather than an urgent piece of theatre. However, there is still enough to intrigue.
One Act Auditions
Grads announce SCDA one-act entries:
The Edinburgh Graduate Theatre Group has put out an open call to auditions for their two entries to the SCDA One Act competition in February 2018.
A Number
★★★★☆ Human intelligence:
Philosophical questions that have puzzled us for centuries are given a contemporary yet timeless spin in A Number, presented by the Lyceum in partnership with the Edinburgh International Science Festival.
