A guide to entertainment in Edinburgh
When it comes to entertainment in Edinburgh, we're very lucky to be spoilt for choice! Whether it's comedy, cinema, theatre, cabaret, shows, spoken word, special events, launches and book readings, there's always something going on.
Here at Edinburgh Reviews, we can never cover everything happening around us in-depth - that's too much for us to handle - but we do cover select entertainment that catches our eye. You can also find plenty of other goings on via our social media!
You can see what's on at the Edinburgh Playhouse right here.

Review: The Mirror Crack’d (4K Restoration) – A Smashing Return to St. Mary Mead
The Mirror Crack’d (1980) returns in a stunning 4K UHD release. Angela Lansbury’s Marple investigates a Hollywood-infused murder. The restoration is superb, making this all-star classic a fantastic movie to watch all over again.

Review: Johns’ Boys at The Queen’s Hall
From formal dinner jackets to casual jeans, Johns’ Boys charmed Edinburgh. Their ‘Choir of the World’ talent shone in Welsh anthems and Robbie Williams covers alike. The audience ‘Loch Lomond’ singalong was a highlight. A brilliant show.
