Make It Happen (EIF)
★★★★☆ Salutary reminder
Make It Happen at the Festival Theatre has all of the trappings of an Event with a capital E. Even if it doesn’t quite justify that status, it is impressive.
Charlie Sonata
★★★☆☆ Emotionally messy:
Time, change, dependence and human frailty are explored with emotion in the world premiere of Charlie Sonata at the Lyceum.
The #CATS16 winners
Wait ends for Godot at CATS:
The Lyceum’s production of Waiting for Godot has won the Best Production award at this year’s Critics Awards for Theatre in Scotland.
Lanark
✭✭✭✭✩ The unstageable, staged:
A world of hugely entertaining possibilities is on display in Lanark. The co-production between the Citizens Theatre and the International Festival has all of the excitement and weight of a capital-letter Theatre Event.
The Beautiful Cosmos of Ivor Cutler – Review
✭✭✭✭✩ Slightly imperfect
Infectious and entertaining, The Beautiful Cosmos of Ivor Cutler is an engaging production whose flaws do not detract from its essential likeability.
Dunsinane
★★★★☆ Subtlety finds solid ground
David Greig’s Dunsinane, a ‘continuation’ of Macbeth with nods to contemporary events, is once again on tour thanks to the National Theatre of Scotland and the Royal Shakespeare Company, and if anything it seems like an even better play than it did last time round.
