Twelfth Night
★★★☆☆ Droll
The Forth Act return to Saughton Park with another helping of outdoor Shakespeare, transporting the Illyria of Twelfth Night to a beach town in the summer of 1967.
Living With the Dead
★★★☆☆ Thoughtful
Not So Nice! Theatre Company’s latest offering, Living With the Dead by Cosette Bolt at the Augustine United Church, confronts the reality of death in its many forms, reflecting on its sameness.
Merry Crisis! A Comedy in Carols
★★★★☆ Memorable
The Forth Act’s festive offering: Merry Crisis! A Comedy in Carols, is a heartfelt new one-act with music, good cheer, holiday family drama, and a thorough dusting of joy – all wrapped up in a neat bow.
Blithe Spirit
★★★★☆ Spectral
Up-and-coming local amateur company The Forth Act has boldly taken on one of Noël Cowards best-known and oft-produced plays with strong success.
A Christmas Carol
★★★★☆ Thoughtful
That most evergreen of Christmas stories – A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens – is given a faithful, tuneful and carefully contemporary spin by Forth Act at Saint Salvador’s in Stenhouse.
The After-Dinner Joke
★★★☆☆ Serious funny
Televisual origins and the passing of time have made much of The After-Dinner Joke, from New Celts and Agree to Disagree at theSpace on the Mile, a curiosity rather than an urgent piece of theatre. However, there is still enough to intrigue.
