Sally Reid
Future Acts
★★★★☆ Pleasingly varied
Future Acts is an intriguing programme of future-facing short films commissioned by the National Theatre of Scotland, playing in a short run of one-off performances in cinemas across the country before airing on BBC digital platforms next year.
Cathy
★★★☆☆ Excellently performed
Cathy from the Traverse is a bleakly funny play that has an excellent central performance but struggles to convince entirely.
Water Colour
★★★★☆ Impressive
Water Colour by Milly Sweeney at the Traverse is a remarkably cogent and compelling production.
NTS’s Brodie Cast announced
Cast and creatives of “spicy” adaptation to open at Lyceum
The National Theatre of Scotland has announced the full cast and creative team of the new production of David Harrower’s adaptation of Muriel Spark’s The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie, opening at the Lyceum in October.
Inexperience
★★★★☆ Human
Inexperience, the new play by Douglas Maxwell at the Pitlochry Festival Theatre Studio, is a stimulating production full of life and emotion.
PPP: Someone’s Knockin’ at the Door
★★★☆☆ Charming
Someone’s Knockin’ at the Door, the first in the new batch of A Play, A Pie and A Pint from Òran Mór at the Traverse, is a well-performed and pleasing – if ultimately insubstantial – production
Chemo Savvy
★★★★☆ Uplifting
Chemo Savvy, from Gilded Balloon and Ryan Dewar at the National Museum Auditorium in the Fringe’s last week, is an exploration of life and death that ends up as far more cheery (and far more touching) than you have any right to expect.
Dear Billy
★★★★☆ Devotional
Gary McNair presents a remount of the National Theatre of Scotland’s Dear Billy, A Love Letter to the Big Yin at the Assembly Rooms on George Street for a ten date run at the fringe.
Shirley Valentine
★★★★☆ Tour de force
Sally Reid’s performance lights up the Pitlochry Festival Theatre’s production of Shirley Valentine, touring to the Lyceum for a three week summer season.
