Barnum
✭✭✭✭✩ That’s showbusiness:
Featuring a huge variety of talents and radiating the joy of putting on a show, Forth Children’s Theatre’s Barnum at Inverleith Church Hall may not quite be the Greatest Show on Earth but is surely worth a dime of anyone’s money. Or a great deal more than a dime, if it comes to that.

Les Miserables
✭✭✭✭✭ Hear the people sing
Skilful, energetic and packing a real emotional punch, Forth Children’s Theatre’s Les Misérables is as impressive a musical production as you are likely to see on the Fringe – or anywhere else.
Hairspray – Review
✭✭✭✭✩ Depth and pleasure

FCT auditions Hairspray this Sunday

Review – Godspell
✭✭✭✭✩ Casts a spell:
Godspell may be a Fringe stalwart but FCT’s production at Inverleith Church Hall is particularly noteworthy. And not just because it is the the first British appearance of the new vocal and musical arrangemements from the 2012 Broadway revival.
