Sweeney Todd
★★★★☆ Vigorous
Captivate Theatre take on the Famous Spiegeltent with their production of Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street through the 24th, bringing Sondheim’s chilling musical, directed by Sally Lyall, to life beneath the canopy.
Cornermen
★★★★☆ Assured
Broken dreams litter the world of boxing, and this is reflected in Cornermen, an impressive production from Authentically False Productions and New Celts at theSpace on the Mile on odd dates throughout the Fringe.
Beauty & the Beast: The Panto
★★★☆☆ Charming
Beauty & the Beast: The Panto, the Christmas offering from Forth Children’s Theatre, has the appeal of a traditional pantomime. Like many pantos, it lacks a little in subtlety and smoothness, but makes up for it in determination and pizzazz.
The Addams Family – A New Musical
★★★★☆ Fantastically fun
Captivate Theatre presents The Addams Family – A New Musical at the Rose theatre in Rose Street for a slightly curtailed run up to Wednesday 24.
Sister Act
★★★★☆ Nun better:
Sisters are doing it for themselves – and packed houses – at the Brunton this week as Our Lady of Loretto Youth Players aim for the heights in an ambitious production of Sister Act.
Bugsy Malone
★★★☆☆ Splurge-tastic:
Captivate Theatre’s production of Bugsy Malone takes you right back to the roaring twenties at Gilded Balloon’s Rose Theatre, with two different casts for alternating performances.
