Odds, Broads and Frauds

★★★☆☆ Mixed

In Odds, Broads and Frauds, St Serf’s Players bring a trio of comedies to the stage at Inverleith which make for a somewhat disparate evening-out in terms of tone, but is certainly an entertaining one all round.

The Haunted Through Lounge…

★★☆☆☆ Silly but fun:
Wobbly sets, missed cues, mixed-up lines and loudly whispered prompts are all in the script for the mid-eighties am-dram-set comedy taken on by St Serf’s Players for three nights only this week.

It Runs in the Family

It Runs in the Family

“✭✭✭✭✩ Perfect timing”

Skittering along as sharply as a junior doctor on his way to an assignation in the Nurse’s station, St Serf’s cheeky version of Ray Cooney’s hospital farce It Runs in the Family is a real blast.
