Oresteia: This Restless House
★★★★☆ Drips grandeur:
Huge and elemental forces drive This Restless House, the version of the Oresteia by Zinnie Harris originally produced by the Citizens’ Glasgow and the National Theatre of Scotland last year.
How To Act
★★★★★ Manipulative:
Perfect pacing and authentic actors give Graham Eatough’s How To Act for the National Theatre of Scotland at Summerhall a unique shine.
The Last Queen of Scotland
★★★☆☆ Urgent:
There is undeniable promise in The Last Queen of Scotland. It is told in a voice largely absent from the stage, and presents a story which seems to have been largely forgotten, but remains desperately contemporary in so many ways.
Adam
★★★☆☆ Powerful:
There is no shortage of unfettered emotion in the National Theatre of Scotland’s Adam at the Traverse.
Eve
★★★★☆ Warmly fierce:
There is a deep humanity to Eve, at the Traverse, that makes it both challenging and reassuring, giving it an ultimate message of hope.

Imaginate & NTS want existing production for children:
Theatre in Schools Scotland has issued an open call for an existing work aimed at children and young people to tour to schools in autumn 2018.
