The Boys in the Band

The Boys in the Band

★★★★☆ Engaging

The EUTC’s engaging production of Mart Crowley’s 1968, New York-set gay drama, The Boys in the Band, is a well-observed affair which is at its best when it goes past the play’s innate waspishness to find its inner anger.

An(other) Inspector Calls

★★★☆☆ Relevant

An(other) Inspector Calls from Edinburgh People’s Theatre at the Church Hill is a knowing tribute to one of the classics of 20th century drama. It does not always forge its own identity convincingly, but has much to recommend it.

The Importance of Being Earnest

★★★☆☆ Spirited

Arkle’s production of The Importance of Being Earnest at the Royal Scots Club has a headlong momentum that impresses, even if it is not always ideally suited to the play.
