King’s Theatre
Chunky Jewellery
★★★☆☆ Colourful
Barrowland Ballet bring a devised piece from theatre-makers Jude Williams and Natasha Gilmore to the Kings Theatre as part of the theatre’s reopening season.
Iolanthe
★★★★☆ Satirical fairytale
The Edinburgh Gilbert and Sullivan Society makes a triumphant return to the King’s Theatre with Iolanthe, a magical musical experience in which the British government comes face to face with immortal fairies.
The Steamie
★★★★★ Joyous
Forget walking woods and witches three, The Steamie has every right to be known as the Scottish Play. The tales of mince and peat baths speak loudly of, and to, its urban Scottish roots in a joyous celebration of life in the face of adversity.
Pinocchio gets his King’s on
New script sets King’s theatre at heart of panto plot

Clown Show (EIF)
★★★★☆ Disturbing fun
Clown Show, created and directed by absurdist, illusionist American theatre-maker Geoff Sobelle and at the King’s for the International Festival’s last weekend, is a boisterous and deeply troubling reflection of all of our lives and times.
