Review: Rocky Horror Show – Edinburgh Playhouse 2025 One of the most immersive theatre experiences to this day, but Jason Donovan's Frank-N-Furter seems more tired than transgressive. Maybe it's time to hang up the heels.

★★★★ Dear Evan Hansen at Edinburgh Playhouse divides audiences! Ryan Kopel’s gripping performance as Evan Hansen powers a polarizing tale of teen deception. Stunning production, soaring vocals! Read our review:
