Rocky Rodriquez Jnr’s Bed Peace is a potentially fascinating area of examination, but unfortunately, Rodriquez’s production is all a bit of a mess.
‘An event of uplifting beauty & hope: THE DISTANCE YOU HAVE COME – Cockpit Theatre ★★★★
Scott Alan’s The Distance You Have Come – a song cycle drawn from Alan’s work to date – has been fashioned together in this two-hour gig and is an event of uplifting beauty and hope.
COCKPIT – Edinburgh ★★★★
There are huge and troubling resonances throughout the Lyceum’s startling Cockpit. Fascinating staging and committed performances make for a thoroughly vital production – albeit one that falls tantalisingly short of greatness.

HAMLET – Cockpit Theatre
Predating the UK’s entry into the EEC/EU (and quite possibly outlasting it too!) the Cambridge University European Theatre Group has over the years amassed a fine degree of cross-Channel cultural integration. To some extent, this year is no exception and having just completed a Swiss tour via Belgium the group bring their 2016 production of Hamlet to the Cockpit Theatre for one day only.
27 – Cockpit Theatre
The premise behind 27 is both noble and tragic. Kurt Cobain, Amy Winehouse, Jim Morrison and Janis Joplin all died at that age and Sam Cassidy’s musical seeks to explore some possible greater satanic force that robs the world of gifted talent at such a tender age.
