Oresteia: This Restless House
★★★★☆ Drips grandeur:
Huge and elemental forces drive This Restless House, the version of the Oresteia by Zinnie Harris originally produced by the Citizens’ Glasgow and the National Theatre of Scotland last year.

The Divide Parts One and Two
★★★☆☆ Long time coming:
The official Festival’s flagship production of Alan Ayckbourn’s The Divide at the King’s contains multitudes.
![Flight Flight](http://www.alledinburghtheatre.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/08/Flight-190x127.jpg)
Flight
★★★★★ Masterful
Vox Motus’ Flight is an emotional and powerful work of art – an experience like no other that stays with you long after leaving Edinburgh’s Church Hill Theatre.

Meet Me at Dawn
★★★★☆ Mythic emotion:
Meet Me At Dawn, a new play by Zinnie Harris presented by the EIF at the Traverse, is a sombre but beautifully open-hearted depiction of love, loss and regret.

Rhinoceros
★★★★☆ Wild:
The EIF’s Rhinoceros is a thoroughly contemporary take on a modern classic, combining knockabout comedy with a deep consideration of human society.
![Greek Greek](http://www.alledinburghtheatre.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/08/allison-cook-and-alex-otterburn-in-greek-scottish-opera-2017-credit-jane-hobson-190x127.jpg)
Greek
★★★★☆ Dark and inventive:
Mark-Anthony Turnage’s operatic version of Greek, based on Steven Berkoff’s play, brings dark humour to the Festival Theatre as part of the Edinburgh International Festival.
