Spring Awakening
★★★★☆ Spring in the step:
Dark and bruising in many parts, TBC Productions has created a properly adult production of alt rock musical Spring Awakening, which is at the Festival Studio to Saturday.
Footloose
★★★☆☆ Nostalgic:
There are some decidedly impressive production numbers in the Bohemians’ production of Footloose at the King’s. Add in some excellent singing and you have a show that will please a lot of people with fond memories of the 1980s.
Spring Awakening Auditions
TBC Productions sets audition date:
Edinburgh amateur musicals company TBC Productions has announced audition dates for its June 2018 production of Duncan Sheik’s musical version of Spring Awakening.
Production team call-out
Production team wanted for Spring Awakening:
Recently formed Edinburgh-based musical theatre company TBC Productions has put out an open call for the production team to steer it through its second production, Spring Awakening, in June 2018.
Little Shop of Horrors
★★★☆☆ Midsummer fun:
There’s bundles of fun and bonkers B-movie mayhem in Little Shop of Horrors, the debut musical from TBC Productions, which is at the Studio on Potterrow to Saturday.
Midsummer Horror Shop
TBC Productions debut with Little Shop of Horrors:
Brand new amateur musicals company, TBC Productions is making its debut on Midsummer night with a new production of cult classic Little Shop of Horrors at the Festival Theatre Studio.
Jekyll & Hyde
★★★☆☆ Split decision:
Splendidly sung and with some excellent dancing, EUSOG’s Jekyll & Hyde – The Musical is a little deficient in both thrills and laughs.
Legally Blonde – The Musical
★★★☆☆ Energetic:
Lacking nothing in sheer relentless drive, the Bohemians’ production of Legally Blonde – The Musical at the King’s has little in the way of subtlety or contrast. As a result, it is great fun but fails to convince completely.
