Joyce Falconer
PPP: The Whaler’s Wife
★★★☆☆ Atmospheric
The Whaler’s Wife, the first in the new season of Òran Mór’s Play, A Pie and A Pint offerings at the Traverse, is a compelling if uneven historical drama blending myth, music and more modern elements.
In Her Hand
★★★★★ Formidable Women
Boutique theatre does not get much better than In Her Hand at theSpace @ Surgeons’ Hall based on real life journals from women working in the Scottish-run hospitals in the Balkans in WW1.
Number One Fan
★★★☆☆ Deftly deceptive
With A Play, A Pie and a Pint rocking the Sunday evening schedules on BBC Scotland, Number One Fan, the lunchtime offering at the Traverse until Saturday, proves that there is even more fun to be had in witnessing theatre in real life.
PPP: Eulogy
★★★☆☆ Surprising:
Rob Drummond surpasses even his own reputation for theatrical twisting and turning with the memorable Eulogy, an invitation to the lunchtime funeral service of the late Sandy Munro.
The Broons
★★★★☆ Cheery:
Loud, hugely enjoyable and instantly recognisable, The Broons, playing the King’s to Saturday, is every bit as much fun as you would hope.
