Emanuel Theatre Company (ETC) presented two productions at this year’s Edinburgh Festival Fringe and they were a huge success! Hamlet Hears a Who was performed by Scarlett, Harry, Noah, Clara, Eva and Emil, supported by technician Dougieand directed by Mr Rogers. The show featured in Hello Magazine’s Top 10 Picks for the festival and was praised for its ‘masterful direction and extraordinary acting’ in a show that was ‘hugely enjoyable family fun’. The Picture of Dorian Gray was performed by Erica, Annie, Marnie and Rachel, supported by technician Eva Sloan, directed by Mr Winer. The show received 4- and 5-star reviews from the press which called it ‘superably acted…a fringe gem’ (5 Stars, EdFest Review) and ‘a joyously silly farce which had its audience laughing throughout’ (4 Stars, North West End UK). As well as having hands-on experience flyering to the public each day on the Royal Mile, students also saw 27 shows during their visit, ranging from clowning and circus to political stand-up and immersive performance. A huge thank you to Miss Kerstein and Ms Graves for organising an incredible trip and to Miss Marcovecchio, Mr Burgess and Mr Harding for all their support.
