PPP: Ivor
★★☆☆☆ Well-meaning
Ivor by Jennifer Adam, the last in the current season of Òran Mór’s Play, Pie and a Pint at the Traverse, is a lively but ultimately confused piece of theatre.
PPP: Dancing Shoes
★★★☆☆ Joyful
There is a heart-warming element of the fantastic as well as sympathetic realism in Dancing Shoes, the latest Play, Pie and a Pint from Òran Mór at the Traverse.
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.
PPP: Dookin’ Oot
★★★★☆ Beautifully vulgar
Dookin’ Oot by Éimi Quinn, the first in the new season of Play, Pie and a Pint from Òran Mór at the Traverse, is a very funny and deceptively serious piece.
PPP: Detained
★★★★☆ Heartfelt
Detained, the final instalment in the Traverse’s autumn season of offerings from from Òran Mór’s Play, Pie and a Pint, is a thoughtful and incisive piece of theatre.
PPP: The Wolves at the Door
★★★☆☆ Well-intentioned
The Wolves at the Door by Jack Hunter, the latest Play, Pie and a Pint offering from Òran Mór at the Traverse, is a piece of politically-informed theatre that has heart but is ultimately lacking in bite.
