Edinburgh Music Theatre
Anthems – Broadway Showstoppers
★★★★☆ Toe-tapping tunes:
Broadway melodies have broad appeal as one of Edinburgh’s best-known amateur groups struts its stuff.
Chess
✭✭✭✭✩ Pawn free:
Attention to theatrical detail brings out some gloriously complex and layered moments in Edinburgh Music Theatre’s production of Chess, at the Church Hill Theatre to Saturday.
Boogie Nights – Review
✭✭✭✩✩ Patchy Fun
Musically strong, Edinburgh Music Theatre’s Boogie Nights has some excellent moments but overall is a somewhat uneven proposition.
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.
Review – How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying
★★☆☆☆ Cartoonish capers come awry:
Frothy, frivolous and fun, How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying is a wryly comic look at the treadmill of big corporate enterprise in post war America.
Review – Sweeney Todd
★★★☆☆ Groundbreaking
Dark and barbaric in its tone, Edinburgh Music Theatre’s production of Sweeney Todd at the Church Hill Theatre until Saturday is also something of a groundbreaking venture for the company in its delivery.
