Revelations of Rab McVie

Revelations of Rab McVie

★★★★☆ Fascinating

It is difficult to describe Revelations of Rab McVie – at the Traverse for two nights only – in a way that does this fascinating production justice. ‘Gig theatre’ too often suggests something either ramshackle or frighteningly ‘progressive’, while the piece’s own publicity, ‘an immersive journey through a psychedelic dreamscape’, also has unfortunate connotations.

On Stage Mon 20 – Sun 26 Feb 2023

What’s on Edinburgh’s stages this week…

Plenty for all tastes on Edinburgh’s stages this week. On the amateur stages, EDGAS give G&S’s Yeomen of the Guard an outing at the Festival Theatre and up at the Church Hill it’s the Edinburgh round of the SCDA One Act Festival.

The AniMotion Show: Peace – War

The AniMotion Show: Peace – War

★★☆☆☆ Better in theory:
Boasting plenty of talent but lacking a clear drive, The AniMotion Show is an interesting multimedia experiment in Gilded Balloon at the Museum which gets lost in its own abstractions.
