Vulcan 7 review

There are some brilliantly imaginative elements to the touring production of Vulcan 7 at the King's. Unfortunately, none of them are in Adrian Edmondson and Nigel Planer's script.

Vulcan 7 review

Vulcan 7 is funny at the right moments, boasting some great one-liners and witty comments, as well as comedic situations. It benefits from excellent actors. However, the storyline was a bit lacking.

Vulcan 7 - King's Theatre, Edinburgh

Vulcan 7 is good, but it could have been a lot more than it is.

Review: Vulcan 7, King's, Edinburgh, Three stars

An actor's life can go in many ways. Adrian Edmondson and Nigel Planer's co-written vehicle for themselves makes this abundantly clear in their portrayal of a couple of old luvs who left Rada at the same time and end up reluctantly reunited in Iceland on the set of the latest instalment of the hokey sci-fi franchise that gives the play its title.
