Disenchanted! The Hit Musical performs at Edinburgh Fringe

The musical “Disenchanted! The Hit Musical” is performing at the Edinburgh Fringe, featuring a cast of fairy-tale princesses who challenge traditional expectations through themes of female empowerment.

Reviews of the production offer mixed perspectives. One critic praised the high-quality vocals and costumes, noting that the show provides a “jovial yet cutting” alternative voice for storied princesses. However, they noted technical issues with lighting and sound, as well as inconsistent pacing regarding sensitive themes.

Another reviewer found the production lacking in emotional depth, stating that the format felt more like a series of individual songs rather than a connected narrative. While the cast's vocal abilities were highly commended, the critic felt a lack of investment in the characters' individual journeys.
