Rumours

Rumours

✭✭✭✩✩ Frantic fun
Energetic, consistent and farcically daft, Arkle Theatre Company’s production of Rumours provides some diverting entertainment.

Weekend Breaks

Weekend Breaks

✭✭✭✩✩ Carefully honed
Arkle Theatre Company’s accomplished production of John Godber’s Weekend Breaks probably gives more care and attention to the material than it deserves.

✭✭✭✩✩ Charmingly geeky
There’s a wry humanity in Anorak of Fire, as well as some jokes that are starting to show their age.

Review – Boston Marriage

Review – Boston Marriage

A crackling script that spits venom and articulate references with equal force and has a casual regard for accuracy – at least on the part of the characters – shines through Arkle’s somewhat under firing production at St Marks until Saturday.

Edinburgh Amateurs On The Edinburgh Fringe

Edinburgh-based amateur theatre companies appearing in the fringe:
