Thank you both so much, Tibidabo and duncan, not only for posting but for providing such detailed reviews. I'm sure I can't be the only one who had either not seen any other reviews, or in some cases, hadn't even heard of the productions themselves. Some facinating and intriguing comments, too - gold dust!

Judgement in Stone - Kings, Edinburgh
Its Bill Kenwright touring a Ruth Rendall adaptation having lost the rights to the Agatha Christie's - so its one set and a cast stuffed full of people you've probably already seen touring with other Kenwright shows. Couldn't see a thread for this one and I doubt many people will be rushing to see it so here we go. Disposable fluff that has a cast giving its all, Sophie Ward playing against type as the downtrodden dowdy housekeeper and Deborah "Bergerac" Grant having a whale of a time playing to the Balcony as the local postmistress being the highlights of the names in the cast but it was the unheralded Rosie Thomson who impressed me the most as the jolly hockey sticks upper middle class mother. Without any spoilers - two detectives meet up to interview the suspects to a multiple murder that took place five weeks previously. An entire family was gunned down in their own home, we then flashback over the last 9 months of their life's as we are shown the circumstances that lead to their deaths. Now then whilst its all entertaining fun and the cast are clearly enjoying themselves (a nice bit of claret when we get to the shootings as well!) the one minor negative point that I do have is that its obvious from the start whodunit and I was wondering if the twist was going to be that someone else had pulled the trigger but no the twist is that there is no twist or maybe its a psychological thriller showing why the trigger is pulled and we're supposed to know who did it and while that's not a problem in the general scheme of things it does mean that its just a bit too linear - if that makes sense in a show that's told in flashbacks. Whodunit spoiler - the final breakdown of Ward and Grant that leads them to do the murders isn't convincing either as it mostly happens off stage so it seems abrupt that they would crack at that moment based on what we have seen. The lady behind me was also clearly a Blue fan as when Antony Costa made his entrance onto the stage I thought she was going to hyperventilate herself into a coma!! If its coming your way its a nice way to spend 2 hours but you'll not really be missing out if you see something else instead. 7/10

I am going to make my first trip to Theatr Clwyd on Wednesday to see Skylight, never been there before, going to catch a train from London to Chester, then get a bus to Mold, it is going to be an evening performance and Shylight finishes at 10pm the last bus to Cheater is 10:20pm and nervous if I make it?
Then going to Manchester to see Funny Girl and The House of Bernarda Alba and Thoroughly Modern Millie Liverpool Friday night, then head back to see Who's Afraid of Virginia Woofe in London Sturday night.

Wow, that sounds like a busy weekend and one to look forward to, Phantom! Making me think I should raise my game, too, as I only do weekend breaks for leisure with my OH or sister, and think I'm doing well to include one theatre visit. Maybe the way to accommodate more is to go alone...

Sticking this here as the tour finishes on Saturday so doesn't warrant a new thread...saw Pride and Prejudice last night at the WMC, if I was picking one word for it then 'fine' would be it. Not in a bad way not in a good way, it is what it is- a perfectly decent re-telling of the story on stage. And frankly that's what audiences want so I believe everyone left happy. It's got a lovely set, and all the actors are good (side note some good colour blind casting going on so points for that) Matthew Kelly is great as Mr Bennett and Mr Darcy himself is so tall I thought he would hit his head on their lovely set or put his back out kissing Elizabeth. I think they could have shaved at least 15-20 mins off the running time, but maybe I'm just tired and grumpy.
Anyway a nice show, good re-telling of the story with all round good performances. Felt sad it fell in half term here as I'm sure some school groups would have upped the frankly meagre audiences it's been getting.

Dancing Bear, Dancing Bear (Gameshow) is recommended if you like fresh and intelligent performance.
The last showing of the tour is at mac, Birmingham on Fri 10 March.
Two men perform onstage while we, and they, experience a soundtrack, delivered by a woman, on our headphones.
The audience was meagre for this too, perhaps because it was so different from the usual theatre at Royal Welsh College.

Watching The Nether at Chapter in Cardiff tonight, the notion crossed my mind that someone sitting opposite me might be emicardiff. As the play continued, I became increasingly convinced of the likelihood of this possibility. It seemed spookily appropriate for a play about real and online identities. So, at the end, as we left the theatre, I bounded up to them.
- Excuse me, you're not Emily, are you?
- Wha'?
- Er, you're not Emily, are y'?
- Ah, no, No, No!!!
But was it really emicardiff? Or Parsley on holiday? Or mrslovettsmeatpie? Or ... ?

9 - Anita and Me - Kings (Edinburgh)
Blimey! a cast of 21 that nearly outnumbered a pitifully spare crowd this evening as everyone in the theatre was moved to rows J and forward in the stalls with none of the other levels open - cant have been more than 150 people there.
And on one level that's not actually surprising as a comedy/drama/musical about an Asian girl growing up in the racist 1970s English midlands is always going to be a hard sell in Edinburgh and another level as to why it wasn't a shock is that this was desperately turgid stuff for the vast majority of its running time.
Its not funny, its not dramatic until the last 15 minutes and its not really a musical - its a hotch potch of ideas that doesn't hang together at all. You never buy into the relationship between Anita and Meena or why Anita still insists on being her friend despite the fact that Anita is clearly a horrid character with some nasty racist tendencies.
Not one I'd recommend at all. 3/10 (and the last 15 minutes has dragged that up).

10. - Girl in the Machine - Traverse
The opening week of the world premiere run of the new play by Stef Smith.
Polly and Owen are a happily married couple until the new piece of must have Tech "Black Box" arrives, it makes it users feel euphoric and Polly soon becomes addicted to it. But what happens when people start dying because of the Box, does Polly love Owen enough to live without her fix?
From the above synopsis you can probably work out the whole show for yourself. Nothing really new here at all - if you've seen the relevant episodes of shows such as Red Dwarf and Star Trek : TNG then it does come across as very samey (and not better than life) but sadly without a cameo from Ron Pember.
It’s the tale of man loves woman, woman loves man but then technology comes along and ruins it for everyone and that's it really. The cast of two give it there all and you can believe in the relationship but as the entire play is set in their flat you don't get an adequate feeling of what's going on in the world outside - we hear about the first death from Black Box in Korea and then we sort of jump from that to society being on the verge of breakdown.
The stage was in the middle of the stage with seating on both sides and set within a shipping container (it’s a play in a box, see what they did there!!) that opens out to reveal the set and cast at the beginning and then closes up again at the end.
7/10 - enjoyable enough but nothing new. Running until April 22nd.

Thank you again, duncan - you are sustaining this thread almost single-handedly! Wish I could have contributed even one review from my weekend in Glasgow but there were so few theatres, some of which had no productions at all and others something I did not wish to see or could have seen in half a dozen venues down south (e.g. the tour of Ghost The Musical).

15 - Not Dead Enough - Kings Edinburgh
Kate Bishop has been murdered and all of the evidence points to her husband - but he was 50 miles away at the time. Is he a devious killer or is there a serial killer at large in Brighton?
This was utter poppycock from start to finish but it was enthralling poppycock. They reveal the killer at the end of Act 1 as by then its obvious Whodunnit! but then they don't reveal the motive until the last 10 minutes or so and it JUST gets away with it. Although the killers plan is so bizzare, convoluted and outlandish that its almost as if they have placed a Roger Moore era Bond villain in a Brighton setting.
The final reveal after the bait and switch we've had during the second half is frankly so far outside the realms of plausibility that several people on the way out of the theatre were still having it explained to them what had actually happened.
The tone isn't 100% right, it has a big farce moment in the first 10 minutes which comes just after we've had the first murder and then we get a cast member drilled to death before the villain of the piece starts prancing around behind the heroine in what can only be described as Panto fashion, as he sneaks up on her ready to strike the fatal blow I was expecting someone to shout "he's behind you". They really needed to decide if this was dark thriller territory or a comedic spoof of the detective genre. What we get mainly goes for the dark but the comedic moments do seem forced.
So whilst the rest of the country has had Shane Richie in the lead we have former soap star Bill Ward as our hero and he was far from line perfect this evening. Opposite him as the female lead is Laura Whitmore in what the programme calls her professional theatrical debut and to be kind to her she is pretty but more importantly she's not very good at acting. I didn't believe in her for one minute as a pathologist and her line reading just seemed off too many times which when coupled with her body acting (stances and interaction wasn't believable for a lot of the play.)
So overall, its complete bobbins and the plot is utter nonsense but of the 3 Peter James adaptations' I've seen this was by far the most entertaining. A grudging 7/10 which with one more pass at the script and some better casting could have been more.

18 - Charlie Sonata - Lyceum (Edinburgh)
The last night of the World Premiere run of this new play.
Alcoholic Chick comes back to Scotland, somewhere its not specified, from London after the daughter of his best friend is injured in a car crash. Alongside a mentally disturbed ballerina who he meets in the hospital he sets out to save her life whilst learning some important lessons about his own.
This is all over the place - it cant decide if it’s a comedy or a drama and as such it falls between both stools and fails to satisfy as either. One minute Chick is playing off the comedy character of the ballerina in a little sidestep set in a childrens soft play world and the next minute he is unintelligible and rolling around the floor drunk whilst his friends ponder his alcoholism and wonder if they have led him to drink his life away but the transitions between pep and ponder don't work in this show. As soon as we get serious then on will come a character with flashing shoes or the discussion on alcoholism will be finished with several hundred soft play balls being launched at the stage. if this has any sort of life beyond this run then someone needs to decide if they want to do a comedy where the lead character is an alcoholic or a drama about an alcoholic hoping to save a young girls life as an act of redemption for his wasted life as on this showing it cant be both.
Other friend Jackson wrote a University dissertation on time (and its relation to Britpop) so all of a sudden a flashback to the writing of this dissertation means we are off into the past of Chick as we see how various past events have led to the current crisis BUT Chick appears to know he's having some time travel related shenanigans but also remembers that Jackson told him that whilst time travel is possible you cant change the past.
And how does Chick know - why through my host hated vice in theatre, the on stage Narrator who does nothing in relation to the other characters all play but instead stands there and TELLS US WHATS GOING ON!!!! If you need a narrator to do that then you need to take at least one more pass at the script as it clearly isn't putting across the intended message.
The costumed ballerina is annoying beyond belief - she isn't funny or even interesting, when it turns out she is preparing to kill herself if she loses custody of her daughter its hard to care for someone who is only a selection of annoying tics rather than a character in their own right.
Anyone who cant see the ending coming from several miles away shouldn't be allowed out on their own. A disappointing end to a fairly disappointing evening, there were 14 of us in the Upper Circle this evening - I now know why this hasn't been a major success.
A fundamentally flawed but with the odd good line and a nice scene on why you should get drunk on certain drinks 4/10

Just a reminder that standalone threads about regional productions are more than welcome. We would hate to think that some of the useful reviews in here were being overlooked by members around the UK.

19 - Bouncers - Festival Studio
Leitheatre, an amateur company, put on a version of the John Godber play about a night in the life of a nightclub in a nameless town.
We have Bouncers such as Eric who is nursing a broken heart as his wife has left him and who the others see as going soft and no longer up to the job, Judd the supposed hard man who thinks he should be the top bouncer instead of Eric and who has nothing else in his life and Les a psychotic idiot looking to kick some heads over the course of the evening and who also has a penchant for leering at the more attractive female customers.
The script has been adapted for the locality so we got references to the likes of Bathgate and the now under the tram line Haymarket Bar and this was the 90s remix of the script, apparently - not sure what the differences are between this and the original version, I assume the music and some of the song choices and pop culture references are different from when the show was first produced.
For an evening of amateur theatre it was actually far more enjoyable than some of the professional shows I've seen this year, the cast of 4 give it their all as they play the titular characters and also a selection of punters and other staff within the nightclub.
Underpinning the streak of humour shot through the middle of this is a far more darker insight into the life of people who plenty of others see and interact with but who these customers essentially ignore as they look down on them as nothing but braindead muscle.
Its a bit of a lopsided script in that the second half is far funnier than the first as we spend our time in the nightclub after the buildup of the first act and the plot strands come together for a finale involving animal porn and dancing. The first act is more interested in character motivation so that come the second half and people are now drunk, being placed in headlocks or watching some Swedish porn (in the shows funniest scene) we understand why their lives are as empty and full of drink as they are.
A crowd pleasing 7/10

21 War in America - Old Royal High School In 1996 The Lyceum, under Kenny Ireland, rejected the play War in America by Jo Clifford deeming it to be "too offensive" to stage, 21 years later and Edinburghs The Attic Collective stage the world premiere of this long lost play. And just to make things interesting, they are holding it in the debating chamber of the Old Royal High School - which was nice. America is in another civil war, the Army of the Christian right have destroyed Hollywood and are threatening to detonate an atomic device in Manhattan. Meanwhile over here as unrest rises a challenger for the position of Prime Minister seeks the ultimate power whilst the Home Secretary is literally being shat on by a Romanian prostitute.
A battle of wills arises as the new Prime Minister and the Home Secretary fight for supremacy to see who actually runs the country and how the country is run - do we require an open honest government or in times of trouble do we need to be monitored and controlled? Controversial, well any play that opens with an actress whipping out a fake penis and pissing into a bucket aint going to be Mary Poppins. The main problem I have with this is that it isn't actually that offensive, yes we have a man being shat on and then having it washed off and yes we have three fake penises on show and yes it highlights aspects of bullying, sexism and racism in the political system but none of it is ground-breaking in terms of taboos. Away from the controversy its a very prescient piece of writing - reflecting as it does the hopes and fears that we now have surrounding issues such as terrorism, untrustworthy politicians, media manipulation, the government poisoning the populace, immigration and gay marriage. In this week of all weeks as the second half moves towards introducing the terrorist known as Starlight it was an uncomfortable reminder of real life to hear characters discuss how terrorism could be used to shift the political agenda and when we got to a scene where machine gun armed police storm the chamber it did just feel a bit too close to the bone. The young cast of 16 were accomplished in what they were doing and certainly fitted The Attic Collective mission of being a "unique talent development initiative" and the only real criticism would be that there were too many hipster beards on show. Overall, a thoroughly enjoyable show that essentially tells us that nothing has changed over the last 20 years. 8/10

22 - Glory on Earth - Lyceum
Mary, Queen of Scots arrives back home, after being abroad for 13 years in an ill fated marriage to a French prince, to rule her own country.
But she is now out of step with her population, the Roman Catholic church is now seen as being the whore of Rome and the people have moved away from it. The reformation has seen John Knox become the voice of the protestant God but Mary thinks she is the voice of her Catholic God. When Knox denounces Mary and Mary continues to take mass, conflict is inevitable.
And here we have 100 minutes on why Scotland is even in the 21st century still a bigoted nest of hatred, especially on the West Coast. So its odd that this is getting its World Premiere in the East.
A Spartan stage, leaden direction by Lyceum artistic director David Greig and a cast of 8 (Mary, Knox and a chorus of 6 attendees/Marys) mean that this has a spark but its a spark that never truly catches fire. Yes its nice to see dramatizations of the meetings that Knox and Mary had in real life but Linda McLeans script is only interested in those scenes and fails to give us the full fall out from them.
We skip from their final meeting to her execution but totally skip over everything that happens in between - and believe me there is enough there to put on a trilogy - which when we are running at a short 100 minutes of content did seem odd. Rona Morison is the show stopper as an emphatic but still a scared Mary but Jamie Sives lacks the fire and brimstone to fully inhabit the character of Knox, he should be Iain Paisley like but instead its more like watching Ian Duncan-Smith.
Overall a 7/10 but I think its a missed opportunity, surely someone like the Lyceum, NTS, Dundee Rep or the Citizens should be putting on the full story of MQoS instead of piece by piece plays like this.

On Thursday I saw a local production of Dirty Rotten Scoundrels at the Chatham Central Hall. I enjoyed it much more than I expected to and I think if an amateur show was this good I wish that I had seen the professional production when it was on in London.

We were in Ireland last week and on Saturday evening went to see Angela's Ashes the Musical in Dublin. It was both funny and moving in equal parts with a great cast and very catchy tunes. Usually after seeing a new musical or something I'm not familiar with I can't remember any of the songs but with this one I'm still humming them days later.
This started last week in Limerick where Frank McCourt grew up then moved to Dublin and later Belfast. I hope it makes it across the water to the West End because I'm sure a lot of people would love it.

25 - Rhinoceros - Royal Lyceum
Its the Edinburgh International Festival and here we have the Lyceum in collaboration with the DOT Theatre of Istanbul.
It’s a pleasant Sunday morning in the town square when a Rhinoceros runs past and then a few minutes later another rhinoceros goes past. Where have they come from and why are they here? Are they European rhinos or are they Middle Eastern rhinos?
With the world being over run by an increasing amount of Rhinos, Berenger discovers that its people that are changing into the Rhinos and as friends, colleagues and more and more of the population conform with the new norm Berenger finds himself trying to hold onto his present whilst deciding what his future holds - will he become part of the collective or is being an individual enough?
A director and writer in love with their concept and deciding to highlight how Berengers world is continually becoming smaller by effectively having the stage layered so that from the first act being set across the whole stage he ends up alone in the new world atop a small table in the plays final moments.
But whilst they clearly love how clever they are being with the diminishing stage and on stage transformations they forgot that they actually have to move the story on - whilst its nice to see characters jumping into the under stage area and have a giant and very life like cat head on display the issue is that these minor flourishes are what people will remember, they have not put any fizz into the actual onstage action and thus the play meanders along for 110 interval less minutes.
It also suffers that none of the characters are very likable and when Berenger finds himself alone at the end of the play having to decide his future you don't feel involved in his decision, its just not been entertaining or interesting enough for us to decide if individuality or conformity is better for him and indeed all of us.
Its moderately amusing from time to time rather than outright funny and the message of racism, community, conforming with society and belief is lost amongst bird poo jokes and at least one poor performance where its clear that the actor is struggling with the rhythm of the language and sadly its a central performance that throws the main relationship off kilter.
6/10 - could do better.

I've just been to see Kneehigh's production of the Tin Drum at the Liverpool Everyman - a very vivid, atmospheric production. The closest things I've seen to it recently are Life of Galileo (with whom it shares Little Angel theatre puppetry and the excellent, fox-like Bettrys Jones) and Girl From the North Country, and, like that, I'm not sure whether you'd call this a musical or a play with songs, but I think it was more sung than spoken. I have to admit I didn't get far with the book and was about 12 when I saw the film, and maybe plotwise it would have helped if I'd read it, but it's still very enjoyable even without. The audience seemed rapt and some gave it an ovation.

I'd be interested if this version made Gunter Grass more accessible as whilst I know he's revered, I've never been able to get through anything he wrote and was bored witless as an A-Level pupil taken by my teacher to hear him give a talk somewhere in London.

On stage, it's a series of events covering a period of years rather than a conventional play (a bit like Life of Galileo), but it's always interesting.

Btw, at the Everyman, seating is on three sides but I think you get the best view from the central block. The new Everyman can be a theatre in the round. It has the same designers as the Dorfman and is a bit like the current Mosquitoes configuration, but with banked seating on three sides so you get a good view over the person-in-front's head.
