EdFringe 2023
Things To Do in Mull
★★★☆☆ Humorous
Things To Do In Mull from Agree to Disagree Theatre and New Celts, at theSpace on the Mile, makes up for in charm for what it lacks in depth.
Shakers
★★★★☆ Impressive
The Edinburgh Graduate Theatre Group revive Shakers to great effect at The Royal Scots Club for the first week of the Fringe only.
Dancing Queens: The ABBA Drag Party
★★★☆☆ Greatest hits

Concerned Others
★★★★☆ Profound impact

A Midsummer Dream in Auld Reekie
★★★☆☆ Moonshine

Graveyard Of The Outcast Dead
★★★★☆ Engaging
The relationships between past and present, and how even the unremembered are never truly forgotten, are explored intelligently, emotionally and tunefully in Graveyard Of The Outcast Dead by Kira Mason.
Strays
★★★☆☆ Toxic apocalypse
There is a fierce energy to Strays from Broken Bottle and New Celts at theSpace on the Mile that compensates for minor problems in the narrative.
Jane/Norma
★★★☆☆ Timely
Jane/Norma, by Viewpoint and New Celts at theSpace on the Mile, is a timely and hard-hitting piece of two-handed verbatim theatre from writer-director Kiera Bell.
ADULTS
★★★★☆ More than a sex comedy
ADULTS, the new play from Kieran Hurley, writer of 2019 hit Mouthpiece, brings Conleth Hill, currently starring in the Power of Parker and known to many for his role in Game of Thrones, to the Edinburgh Fringe.
Whisky Galore
★★★★☆ Classic comedy
Edinburgh People’s Theatre, 80 years young and regulars at the Fringe since Methuselah was a boy, return to one of their greatest hits in style with a production of Whisky Galore at Mayfield Salisbury Church.
