EIF 2025
Faustus in Africa! (EIF)
★★☆☆☆ Lacking clarity
Faustus in Africa! may have been a ground-breaking production thirty years ago, but it is not entirely clear why it has been revived now, at the International Festival for four performances at the Lyceum.
Cutting the Tightrope
*** Politically charged
Dealing with censorship and artistic freedom, Cutting The Tightrope at the Church Hill for four performances as part of the International Festival, is an honest and fearless production whose approach is not wholly successful.
Make It Happen (EIF)
★★★★☆ Salutary reminder
Make It Happen at the Festival Theatre has all of the trappings of an Event with a capital E. Even if it doesn’t quite justify that status, it is impressive.
