EPT talk Quartermaine’s Terms – opening soon! A Local Endeavour Edinburgh’s theatre scene can look forward to a spring highlight. Edinburgh People’s Theatre (EPT) is staging Simon Gray’s award-winning play, Quartermaine’s Terms, at the Church Hill Theatre from 19–22 March 2025. Set in a 1960s Cambridge school for overseas English students, it follows headmaster St John Quartermaine and six teachers navigating personal dramas amid quiet isolation.

"...so painfully relatable that I don’t think it has lost any of its humour over time." Edinburgh People's Theatre talk Quartermaine's Terms this March.
