Here are some fascinating photos selected from the Evening News archives which give a flavour of what was happening on Edinburgh’s theatre scene in the early 1990s.
There are pictures of Sean Connery - and his family - as well as Stephen Fry and Rudolf Nureyev, not to mention singers Barry Manilow and Vanilla Ice.
And there are also pictures of the Empire Theatre as a bingo hall before it was transformed into the Festival Theatre.
