Edinburgh Graduate Theatre Group
Hay Fever
★★★☆☆ Lightly hilarious
Every family has their foibles, but the Bliss family are next-level eccentric in Noel Coward’s delicious comedy Hay Fever – brought to the Assembly Roxy by EGTG for four performances only.
Theatre Fest is GO
Proposals now sought for May 2022 outdoor festival
The StagEHd Festival, a new theatre festival for amateur and grassroots theatre companies based in an EH postcode is to take place in the Ross Bandstand in Princes Street Gardens in May 2022.
Bytesize Theatre
★★★☆☆ Welcome
The lack of time to plan for live theatre at this year’s Fringe has not deterred the Edinburgh Graduate Theatre Group. Bytesize Theatre is a collection of three new plays presented on the online Fringe Player. The three pieces are not all equally impressive, but each has intriguing elements.
EGTG EdFringe Auditions
Casting for three digital productions
Leading Edinburgh amateur company Edinburgh Graduate Theatre Group has put out a casting call for three digital productions as part of the 2021 Edinburgh Fringe 2021.
Fest of Theatre for 2021
EGTG call Zoom meet to plan May event:
The Edinburgh Graduate Theatre Group is proposing a three day Festival of Theatre in May 2021 and is inviting all Edinburgh’s amateur and community theatre companies to join the planning.
The Merry Wives of Windsor/Holyrood
★★★☆☆ Shakespeare transported:
Let’s get one thing straight right away, EGTG’s show at the Royal Scots Club is not an expose of the fun and frolics of the female members of the Scottish parliament.
Pool (no water)
★★★★☆ Cruel but hilarious:
The Edinburgh Graduate Theatre Group’s late evening show at the Royal Scots Club, for week one of the Fringe only, is a decidedly over-18s only production of Pool (no water).
EGTG’s 2019 shows
EGTG announce ambitious 2019 programme:
The Edinburgh Graduate Theatre Group has announced that it will stage four full length productions and two one-acts in 2019, as well as running a programme of improvised theatre during the year.
EdFringe Theatre – Amateur companies
Edinburgh’s Amateur theatre companies on the Fringe:
There are more shows made by Edinburgh-based companies at this year’s fringe than all the shows at the 1972 Edinburgh fringe put together. Here’s our listing of the Amateur Theatre Companies.
Macbeth
★★☆☆☆ Darkly modest:
The Edinburgh Graduate Theatre Company take on Shakespeare’s Macbeth at Assembly Roxy this week, in a production which leans into all the horror and gore the tragedy reveals.
