Drama at the Edinburgh International Festival: history and repertoire, 1967–1976

January 01, 1970

Drama was an increasingly important part of the Edinburgh International Festival during its third decade. There were a total of 85 productions that were put on stage.

There were a total of 42 theatrical companies that appeared during the decade, of which the most prolific were the Prospect Theatre Company formerly Prospect Productions, Royal Lyceum Theatre Company based in Edinburgh's Royal Lyceum Theatre, and the Actors Company, founded by Edward Petherbridge and others in 1972. Other important companies included Glasgow Citizens Theatre, Nottingham Playhouse Company, The National Theatre of Great Britain and La MaMa Company of New York.

Visiting companies came from the US, Ireland, Japan, Italy, Sweden, Switzerland, Belgium, Czechoslovakia, Romania, Poland and Bulgaria.

Many performances were at the same venues used in earlier years, notably the Royal Lyceum Theatre, The Assembly Hall, and the former Gateway Theatre, but new venues came into use such as Church Hill Theatre, Haymarket Ice Rink and the Moray House College.
