Blonde ambitions
Bohemians turn Legally Blonde for the week:
The Bohemians Lyric Opera Company bring their production of Legally Blonde to the stage this week, as the final part of the King’s amateur season.
Loserville
★★★☆☆ Energetic:
There is sufficient speed and energy to Allegro’s Loserville at the Church Hill to make for a satisfactory time, despite what can only be seen as the most unpromising source material.
Guys and Dolls
★★★☆☆ On song:
Crisply led from the pit, Musselburgh Amateur Musical Association’s production of Guys and Dolls, at the Brunton until Saturday, swings in all the right places as it pushes the music to the fore.
Sister Act
★★★★☆ Heavenly heights:
Huge and tuneful fun can be had in The Bohemians’ production of Sister Act. A move to the King’s Theatre has not daunted the company – rather, it seems to have inspired them to be bigger, grander and better.
Our House
★★★☆☆ Bursting with potential:
There is a bouncy, big-hearted party production of Our House, the Madness jukebox musical, which is desperate to burst on to the stage of the Church Hill Theatre.
Grease – Review
✭✭✭✭✩ A smooth operation
The Bohemians’ snappy and agile production of Grease fairly flies across the stage at the Church Hill, providing a great deal of deftness and dexterity allied to boisterous amusement.
