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
It’s Good Morning Baltimore at the Edinburgh Academy’s theatre all this week where the young members of the Forth Children’s Theatre are getting it right with a super production of Hairspray.
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.
Review – Seussical the Musical
✭✭✭✭✩ Simple and joyous
Crisp and even, Forth Children’s Theatre’s production of Seussical also finds the deeper points of Stephen Flaherty and Lynn Ahrens’ musical based on the works of Dr Seuss.
Review – 13 The Musical
★★★☆☆:
Bursting with exuberance, big beats and hormonally-enhanced doses of angst, the Forth Children’s Theatre production of 13 The Musical, captures that particularly vicious age when you officially become a teenager.
