baba
★★☆☆☆ Unfulfilled
The Edinburgh Graduate Theatre Group brings a new festive folktale to the Pleasance stage this weekend in the form of baba, a new take on the old tales of Baba Yaga and her house on chicken legs. This piece has many ambitions, but falls short of achieving them in its writing and execution.
Chalk
★★★★☆ Well observed
The UK premiere of Walt McGough’s Chalk from the Edinburgh Graduate Theatre Group, upstairs at the Assembly Roxy, lacks a little in apocalyptic intensity – but convinces in its evocation of human relationships.
Apocalypse beyond the line
EGTG revive Walt McGough’s Chalk
Edinburgh Graduate Theatre Group return this coming week with a revival of American playwright Walt McGough’s intense, 2015 sci-fi fable, Chalk, upstairs at the Assembly Roxy from Wed 8 to Sat 11 November 2023.
The Importance of Being Earnest
★★★☆☆ Spirited
Arkle’s production of The Importance of Being Earnest at the Royal Scots Club has a headlong momentum that impresses, even if it is not always ideally suited to the play.
