Edinburgh Festival Theatre


Opera, ballet, symphony and pop
13-29 Nicholson Street
Edinburgh EH8 9FT
United Kingdom

Before the birth of the Festival Theatre, opera seemed to have no real home in the Scottish capital. Several plans for an Opera House were suggested, shelved and eventually rejected. Instead of constructing anew, the decision was finally taken to refurbish and revamp the old Empire Theatre, and in the summer of 1994 a new, glass-fronted Festival Theatre was opened. The large stages are now graced by a variety of performances, from ballet and opera to drama and cabaret. During the Edinburgh International Festival, the theatre hosts many prestigious concerts. The summer Proms season with the Royal Scottish National Orchestra is another annual highlight. Prices vary so call for details.

Edinburgh Playhouse


Be a part of history
18-22 Greenside Place
Edinburgh EH1 3AA
United Kingdom
+44 131 524 3333
http://www.edinburgh-playhouse...
One of Britain's most successful theatres, the Edinburgh Playhouse has a history as colorful as its event lineup. Since its opening in 1929, it has endured ownership changes, slumps in attendance, and political wrangling to become the popular venue it is today. You can catch performances like The Nutcracker, Carmen, and even Lord Of the Dance.

Scruffy Murphy's One Comedy Night


Stand up
49/50 Scruffy Murphy's, George IV Bridge
Edinburgh EH1 1EJ

The only alternative to The Stand comedy venue, this Irish theme bar offers stand-up on a Friday night. It's free, as you're presumably buying from the bar, and the regular compere is Reg "Voodoo" Anderson. Starting around 8p.

Stand Comedy Club


Raw talent and raucous laughter
5 York Place
Edinburgh EH1 3EB
United Kingdom
+44 131 558 7272
http://www.thestand.co.uk/
Come here for comedy, seven days a week, from some of Britain's best-known comedians, alongside some lesser known names and a variety of up and coming (and terrified) hopefuls. This popular venue frequently offers other attractions like comedy quizzes, as well as a full program of Fringe Festival performances. They also run sporadic events such as "Whose Lunch Is It Anyway" where the show itself comes free with a meal or drinks. It is rowdy but good-natured and gets busy on weekends as it holds only 160 bodies, so book early.
