The Seagull
★★★☆☆ Well crafted
The Seagull, from EUTC at the Bedlam until Sunday, is a fastidious, even reverential production that largely succeeds but does sometimes struggle to find its own identity.
Accidental Death of an Anarchist
★★★☆☆ Relevant
Edinburgh University Theatre Company’s production of Accidental Death of an Anarchist, is a farcical comedy exploring how police violence and abuse is just as prevalent in the UK today as it was in 1970s Italy, when the original play was written.
The End of the Line
★★★★☆ Feelgood existentialism
The End of the Line – a feelgood apocalypse comedy at the Edinburgh University Theatre Company’s Bedlam Theatre until 10 August – gives dynamic 1980s vibes, both in its power pop soundtrack and nuclear annihilation storyline.
Slash
★★★★☆ Witty and clever
Slash is a witty murder mystery with a clever twist. Performed at Bedlam by the Edinburgh University Theatre Company, the show is a whodunnit with perfect comedic timing. Set entirely in a boy’s toilet.
Mother Clap’s Molly House
★★★★☆ Gloriously vulgar
The EUTC deliver a fully frank and deliciously frivolous take on Mother Clap’s Molly House, Mark Ravenhill’s dark comedy with songs, which plays the Bedlam to Saturday.
