Cinderella
★★★★☆ Heartwarming
Edinburgh People’s Theatre have been doing pantomimes for so many years that they would be forgiven for coasting, However, Cinderella at the Church Hill – despite some awkwardness in the script – is effervescent, joyful, and appealing to all ages.
Brassed Off
★★★★☆ Tragicomic grandeur
If we must have music-driven stage adaptations of films, they should be like Edinburgh People’s Theatre’s impressive production of Brassed Off, where the music is integral to a story that actually means something.
A Tomb With A View
★★★☆☆ Ridiculous
Cheerfully ludicrous and staged with considerable craft, Edinburgh People’s Theatre’s production of A Tomb With A View is thoroughly entertaining.
Tomb Hopping
EPT get farcical with Norman Robbins
Edinburgh People’s Theatre return to the Church Hill Theatre this week with a production of A Tomb with a View, from Wednesday to Saturday, following the success of the Men Should Weep back in March.
Men Should Weep
★★★★☆ Timely
Seemingly endlessly delayed by Covid, Edinburgh People’s Theatre’s production of Men Should Weep finally takes to the Church Hill stage. The end result is carefully observed and has considerable emotional power.
