An Edinburgh Christmas Carol

An Edinburgh Christmas Carol

★★★★☆  Timely

There is so much to commend in the return of An Edinburgh Christmas Carol to the Lyceum, where it runs through until December 31.

Dark Tales

★★☆☆☆ Jumpy
Haunting raw material and a fairly straightforward telling from Theatre Paradok give a good account of this pair of classic Victorian ghost stories, at the Banshee Labyrinth until Thursday.

Review – A Christmas Carol: The Pantomime

Accomplished and enjoyable, Balerno Theatre Company’s staging of A Christmas Carol – The Pantomime is an entertaining if ultimately somewhat patchy production.

✭✭✭✭✩ Dickens of a good time
Radiating good humour and Christmas cheer, the Lyceum’s production of A Christmas Carol provides highly successful seasonal entertainment.

Review – The Mystery of Edwin Drood

✭✭✭✩✩ Exuberantly immersive:
Sprightly and spirited, Eusog’s take on the musical version of Charles Dickens’ unfinished final novel immerses its audience in the show from before curtain up.
