Inexperience
★★★★☆ Human
Inexperience, the new play by Douglas Maxwell at the Pitlochry Festival Theatre Studio, is a stimulating production full of life and emotion.
Stand & Deliver: The Lee Jeans Sit-In
★★★★☆ Delivers
The National Theatre of Scotland and the Tron Theatre’s touring production Stand & Deliver: The Lee Jeans Sit-in at the Traverse is both entertaining and affecting. The politically charged gig-musical is a thoroughly enjoyable, utterly necessary reminder of recent history.
Black Diamonds and the Blue Brazil
★★★☆☆ Subtly resonant
Black Diamonds and the Blue Brazil at the Lyceum is a sensitive exploration of community, family and football that has much to commend it, but stretches itself a little thin.
The Girls of Slender Means
★★★☆☆ Poignant
Gabriel Quigley’s adaptation of Muriel Spark’s The Girls of Slender Means for the Lyceum is an enjoyable and wonderfully acted piece of theatre, that does justice to its source’s substance if not its ambition.
Group Portrait in a Summer Landscape
★★★★☆ Philosophical weight
Group Portrait in a Summer Landscape at the Lyceum deals unapologetically with difficult emotional and political themes, eschewing any easy answers or resolutions in a way that could be difficult but is made palatable by performances of power and nuance.
