Nightmare
★★★☆☆ Oddly enjoyable:
A frankly implausible plot, that breaks several of the cardinal rules of crime fiction, is largely overcome by the committed performances in Saughtonhall Drama Group’s Nightmare.

A Fistful of Mondays
★★★★☆ Yee-ha!
Low-key but satisfying, Saughtonhall Drama Group’s A Fistful of Mondays which has a limited run to Saturday is attractively humorous.

Ladies’ Day
★★★★☆ Good each-way bet
Saughtonhall Drama Club’s Ladies’ Day has warm humour, the odd spiky line and a finely put together production.

Hatches, Matches and Dispatches
★★★★☆ Beautiful timing:
There is genuine warmth in Saughtonhall Drama Group’s Hatches, Matches and Dispatches, adding to a real drive and considerable understanding of comedy.

Ne’er the Twain
★★★★☆ Funny:
Bold, fast-paced and verging on the hysterical at times, Saughtonhall Drama Group’s Ne’er The Twain is a tremendously enjoyable production.

A Murder Is Announced
★★★☆☆ Pleasing:
Thoughtful and well staged, Saughtonhall Drama Group’s production of Agatha Christie’s A Murder Is Announced is a solid evening’s entertainment.

Beyond a Joke
✭✭✭✩✩ Dead funny
Saughtonhall Drama Group extract a large amount of humour from their production of Derek Benfield’s 1979 farce Beyond a Joke.

Suddenly at Home – Review
✭✭✭✩✩ Subtle thrills
There are some excellent performances and a great deal to applaud in Saughtonhall Drama Group’s production of Francis Durbridge’s thriller Suddenly At Home; even if the end result is enjoyable rather than truly gripping, it still makes for a highly pleasurable evening.
