Who Killed My Father at the Traverse mixes the personal and the political thoroughly successfully.

What’s on Edinburgh’s stages this week?
The last week of the Easter break marks the arrival of what might be the hottest ticket to come to town this year – Isobel McArthur’s latest venture into classic adaptations with Kidnapped, at the Lyceum for a limited season.
Stornoway, Quebec
★★★★☆ Wild Gaelic Western
Theatre Gu Leòr’s, Stornoway, Quebec, is a wild Gaelic Western, based loosely around the real figure of Donald Morrison, the Mégantic Outlaw, and set in a failing hotel in Quebec.
Family Tree
★★★★☆ Illuminating
Family Tree, by Mojisola Adebayo, at the Traverse for three nights only, is a word-spitting, poetic and coruscating piece of theatre that brings light to a shameful corner of the scientific world.
PPP: The Spark
★★★★☆ Fiery
The Spark by Kathy McKean, the final offering in the current Traverse run of Oran Mor’s Play, Pie and a Pint, is a clever and compelling piece of theatre.
PPP: Variant
★★★★☆ Unsettling
There is a pleasing intransigence to Variant by Peter Arnott, the latest Play, Pie and a Pint from Oran Mor at the Traverse and Arnott’s fiftieth professionally produced play.
PPP: Write Off
★★★★☆ Magnetic
There is an undeniable force to Aodhan Gallagher’s Write-Off, the latest Play, Pie and a Pint at the Traverse, presented by Oran Mor in association with Dundee Rep.
PPP: BABS
★★★☆☆ Magic energy
BABS, the latest Play, Pie and a Pint at the Traverse, is an endearing work; funny, frothy and deceptively serious, but occasionally pulling in too many directions at once.
