The Grand Duke
★★★★☆ Inspired merriment
The Grand Duke, from EdGAS, is a pleasurably silly delight from start to finish. Consistently stylised to the perfect degree of deliberate overacting, it elicits laughs without being overdone.
Kiss Me, Kate
★★★★☆ Chef’s kiss
Kiss Me, Kate, from the Edinburgh University Footlights, is a strikingly ambitious production. Not every element succeeds equally, but some aspects are excellent, and all of it entertains.
FRIENDS! The Musical Parody
★★☆☆☆ Muddled
FRIENDS! The Musical Parody, at the Edinburgh Playhouse through Saturday, is a meta-episode covering the ten-year arc of the iconic 90’s TV show about the lives and loves of six young adults in Manhattan.
