Day 9 Roundup

Bepo & Co, C. Youngsters in greasepaint shout their way through a frustratingly unintelligible play. You've probably seen it before. 2/5

Forgetting Natasha, Zoo Southside. Pretty spectacular projection is dampened by comfortable dance and an earnest, unnecessary script. 3/5

One Under, Pleasance Courtyard. A smart young ensemble, brimming with acting talent, present stories of love and loneliness in the city. 3/5

Shutterland, Zoo. Dynamic physical performances in a chilling tale of one man against the system. Could have pushed the staging further. 3/5

Wrens, Sweet Grassmarket. Plenty of claustrophobia in the detailed set, and a few good turns, but this wartime drama quickly wears thin. 2/5

You Will Be Rare, Zoo. By turns worrying and endearing, this bonkers sales pitch will transform your world. Infectious. #cash4ramman 4/5
