Jesus Christ Superstar
★★★☆☆ Fraught:
The doubts of Jesus as he waits for his death are brought to the fore in Captivate Theatre’s all-singing all-dancing production of Jesus Christ Superstar at the Rose Street Theatre.
Sweeney Todd
★★★★☆ Bloodily brilliant:
The dark streets of Victorian London come to life in this thrilling production of Sweeney Todd by Captivate Theatre.
Annie
★★★★☆ Spirited & Heartwarming:
Captivate Theatre’s excellent production of Annie – on until August 14 at the Rose Theatre – brings a lively and contagious enthusiasm to the Fringe.
Fiddler on the Roof
★★★★☆ Strong theatre:
Sweeping along on the back of a strong emotional charge, Edinburgh Music Theatre has made good of its move down the hill for a short stay at the King’s with its Fiddler on the Roof.
Anthems – Broadway Showstoppers
★★★★☆ Toe-tapping tunes:
Broadway melodies have broad appeal as one of Edinburgh’s best-known amateur groups struts its stuff.
Boogie Nights – Review
✭✭✭✩✩ Patchy Fun
Musically strong, Edinburgh Music Theatre’s Boogie Nights has some excellent moments but overall is a somewhat uneven proposition.
Review – Sweeney Todd
★★★☆☆ Groundbreaking
Dark and barbaric in its tone, Edinburgh Music Theatre’s production of Sweeney Todd at the Church Hill Theatre until Saturday is also something of a groundbreaking venture for the company in its delivery.
