St Edward’s and beyond! In the first
week of the Edinburgh Festival, the
cast and crew of
Love and Information
hit the road north to perform their
impressive show at the heart of the
Fringe. Four magnificent days of
touring, practising the disciplines of the
trade and performing to enthusiastic
audiences were rewarded with hugely
positive feedback and a four star
review from the Fringe’s favourite critic,
Broadway Baby:‘This is a superb student
production from St Edward’s School
under the direction of Jamie Johnstone
and co-director Rebecca Clark….This
is a complex work and there is much to
unlock.The students have an excellent
grasp on the script in bringing it to life. I
am impressed with the performances by
St Edward’s School, who prove to be well
rehearsed and mature in their approach.
The show is polished, and technically sound,
with lighting by Casper Sunley and music
used well in creating a sense of place…
Overall, this show demonstrates the
young talent out there and what can be
achieved by school-aged performers. It’s
an excellent production of Churchill’s script.
