Simon Baker
Blue Beard
★★★★☆ Furiously funny
A riotous combination of anger and dizzying theatrical invention, Blue Beard at the Lyceum until the end of the month, is troubling and messy in exactly the right ways.
Girl from the North Country
★★★★☆ Organic
Possessing theatrical craft and endless soul, Girl from The North Country is in danger of giving touring jukebox musicals a good name.
Wuthering Heights
★★★☆☆ Overstretched
Emma Rice’s adaptation of Wuthering Heights for Wise Children with the UK National Theatre, Bristol Old Vic and York Theatre Royal is full of energy and ideas. Indeed, too full for its own good at times.
Dylan Show gets Edinburgh Dates
Girl from the North Country for Edinburgh Playhouse
Girl from the North Country, the musical written and directed by Conor McPherson using Bob Dylan’s music and lyrics has announced October 2022 dates at the Edinburgh Playhouse.
Rebecca
★★★★☆ Curiously inventive:
Kneehigh Theatre have certainly put their own stamp on Daphne Du Maurier’s 1938 novel, Rebecca.
