Little Women
★★★★★ Knowing
Little Women sees Bare productions return for a second show this Fringe with another entertaining a well thought-out musical that features a top notch cast and clever direction in a limited space.
Legally Blonde – The Musical
★★★★☆ Energetic
Allegro’s version of Legally Blonde – The Musical at the Church Hill Theatre until Saturday is bold, brash and full of impact.
The Drowsy Chaperone
★★★☆☆ Strong performances
Edinburgh Music Theatre’s post-pandemic return at the Church Hill Theatre is The Drowsy Chaperone, a show which began life as a collection of songs presented to comedian and writer Bob Martin and his fiancée as a wedding present.
EMT Chaperone Call Out

EMT Get Drowsy
EMT Announce Spring 2022 return
Edinburgh Music Theatre has given advance notice that it is to stage The Drowsy Chaperone as its Spring 2022 production at the Church Hill Theatre.
The Addams Family
★★★★★ Spookily entertaining:
Spooky, funny and entertaining, Bare Productions have brought back to life one of the most dysfunctional family’s in the world in the kooky Addams Family musical at this year’s Fringe.
Footloose
★★★☆☆ Nostalgic:
There are some decidedly impressive production numbers in the Bohemians’ production of Footloose at the King’s. Add in some excellent singing and you have a show that will please a lot of people with fond memories of the 1980s.
From Broadway to Hollywood
★★★☆☆ Hearing impaired:
A few minutes into this concert by The Bohemians Lyric Opera Company at St Cuthbert’s Church I wanted to walk out. But I wanted to take the singers and musicians with me.
9 to 5 The Musical
✭✭✭✭✩ Fun and emotion:
Rollicking and rumbustious, but with surprisingly deep reservoirs of emotion, the Bohemians’ production of 9 to 5 The Musical at the King’s is a definite hit.
Jekyll & Hyde
★★★☆☆ Split decision:
Splendidly sung and with some excellent dancing, EUSOG’s Jekyll & Hyde – The Musical is a little deficient in both thrills and laughs.
