Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead
★★★☆☆ Solid
The Makars give a solid account of Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead at the Church Hill Theatre, in a production which speaks to the mundanities of Tom Stoppard’s script while allowing its humour to speak for itself.
Bedroom Farce
★★★★☆ Accomplished
The Edinburgh Makars’ production of Bedroom Farce at the Church Hill confidently combines comedy and tragedy to great effect.
The Importance of Being Earnest
★★★☆☆ Perspicacious
The Edinburgh Makars return to the Church Hill theatre with a bounce in their step for three performances of a nicely juicy production of The Importance of Being Earnest.
Prescription For Murder
★★★☆☆ Pleasing:
Prescription For Murder, from the Edinburgh Makars at the Church Hill Theatre, is one of those odd English crime dramas that provide more reassurance than apprehension.
Good Things
★★★☆☆ Heartfelt:
There are plenty of Good Things in the Makars’ production of Liz Lochhead’s play of that name, in a production that is solid if not spectacular.
The Game’s Afoot
✭✭✭✩✩ Elementary but entertaining:
There is solid, well-crafted entertainment in The Edinburgh Makars’ production of The Game’s Afoot or Holmes For The Holidays. Genuine thrills and spills are in short supply, but great pains have been taken to make a rewarding whole.
