We Are All Florida Man
★★★★☆ Ridiculous
We Are All Florida Man is a piece of comedy absurdism whose own internal logic is sustained by humour, fine performances and energetic staging.
Halfway Home
★★★☆☆ Fresh
There is something very apt in seeing Halfway Home, a new play by Deliverance Theatre, in its late-night slot. The characters are tired. Tired of working so hard, tired of the bureaucracies they need to deal with. Tired of being stuck
A Better Memory
★★★☆☆ Smart and tender
A Better Memory (Pleasance Courtyard, to 30 Aug) is a fresh, smart and tender exploration of family secrets and how AI can change your life.
Getting Along With Gran
★★★★☆ Enjoyable
Getting Along With Gran, from Citadel Arts at North Edinburgh Arts for two days only, is a vibrant and thoroughly enjoyable piece of community-focused theatre.
PPP: Eilidh, Eilidh, Eilidh
★★★★☆ Accomplished
Eilidh, Eilidh, Eilidh, by Lana Pheutan, is gently humorous and thoroughly involving. Pheutan, from Skye, has been involved in Fringe stalwarts Pretty Knickers Productions and in writing for TV Alba, and also directs what is the latest Play, Pie and a Pint from Òran Mór at the Traverse.
Ghosts of North Leith
★★★★☆ A haunting tale
Following a trial reading at Leith Festival earlier this year, the Ghosts of North Leith have been brought home in Citadel Arts Group’s production, which returns them to the church near by the cemetery where they are buried.
Salamander
★★★★☆ Powerful and funny
Salamander, by Pretty Knickers Productions at Assembly Roxy for the first two weeks of the Fringe only, takes its starting point from the unsolved murder of a sex worker in Leith in 1983.
