A Grand Night For Singing
★★★☆☆ Bouncy
A Grand Night For Singing, the showcase for the works of Rodgers and Hammerstein conceived by Walter Bobbie and restaged for the International Festival by Kim Criswell, is a wonderfully tuneful affair. Bursting with humour and bonhomie, it is attractive and occasionally infuriating.
The King and I
★★★★★ Fit for a King:
Shall we dance? You’ll certainly be singing the praises of this Broadway production of The King and I as it lights up the Playhouse stage.
The Sound of Music
★★★★☆ Clear-voiced:
Youth musicals company A-Team Productions has pulled out all the musical stops this week in a hugely enjoyable production of The Sound of Music up at the Church Hill Theatre.
The King and I for Playhouse
Broadway hit for Playhouse – October 2019:
The Tony-award winning production of The King And I has been announced for a major UK tour, with booking already open for the Edinburgh Playhouse where it arrives for 15 performances in October 2019.
Oklahoma!
★★★☆☆ Tuneful:
Tender and melodic, Encore’s production of Oklahoma! at the Brunton to Saturday is marked out by some striking vocal performances and clever attention to romantic detail.
