Sala: Macrobert Arts Centre, Stirling

Opera Bohemia provides a fun-filled showcase for Conservatoire graduates in a finely sung Falstaff heading for the Edinburgh Fringe with a small orchestra.

Ballet West’s production of Swan Lake at the MacRobert Arts Centre in Stirling was shaky in places but, overall, a very enjoyable evening.

Scottish Opera made a wise choice in selecting Handel’s concise court drama to tour widely across Scotland this autumn. This is the ideal showcase for its Emerging Artist singers and also the new faces in the production team.
