TIMESHARE

17/8/09, Edinburgh College of Art (Edinburgh Fringe)

Shades of Stoppard's Rosencrantz & Guildenstern are Dead in a fable about two couples on holiday in a timeshare with an empty apartment between them which turns out to be inhabited by the Macbeths, with predictable results.

The set three door frames and a picnic table. Not as witty as Stoppard and without his Beckettian sense of absurdity, but quite cleverly done.

I thought it slight but engaging. D liked it rather more.
