Review – The Suicidal Tendencies Of Sheep And A Dog Called The Hoff
New company Just Like The Precipitation’s first ever-production, the unwieldy-sounding The Suicidal Tendencies Of Sheep And A Dog Called The Hoff by Sarah Hailstones, is a promising and intriguing play at The Space On North Bridge.

There is a compelling piece of theatre in this adaptation Steven King’s novella, Rita Hayworth and the Shawshank Redemption, at the Assembly Rooms on George Street.
Review – A Midsummer Night’s Savoy
Accend Productions’ A Midsummer Night’s Savoy, showing at Gryphon Venues at the Point Hotel, is a cheerfully inspired combination of Shakespeare with Gilbert and Sullivan.
Review – Circles of Love
Edinburgh Music Theatre’s Circles of Love is an enjoyable and skilful journey through the Disney songbook at St Andrew’s and St George’s West Church.

Killers, presented at The Assembly Rooms by Boys of The Empire Productions, is a disturbing and challenging piece of work, which attempts to give an insight into the mind of a murderer.
Review – Ciara
David Harrower’s one-woman play, written for Blythe Duff, is a finely honed exposition of the collision of diverse worlds – written in ear-to-the-ground language.
Review — Fourplay
Asked to nominate four people to explain about love, lust, loneliness and obsession, is it likely anyone would suggest two actors, a former-actor-turned-care worker and one of their co-workers?
Review – HeLa
★★★★☆ Immortality unsought:
Summerhall’s anatomy theatre is the perfect location for Adura Onashile’s revelatory one woman play about Henrietta Lacks, whose body cells have been vital to modern medicine.
