Haughtie Hussies and Hough-Magandy is the title of our Celebration for Robert Burns from the acclaimed Ideoms Theatre Company ** SOLD OUT***

Of all the celebrations of Robert Burns during the 250th anniversary of his birth, Rowan Tree Theatre Company’s new production, The Lasses,O, promises to be one of the most joyous, the most unusual, and the most enjoyable for all ages.

Stewart Hardy and Frank McLaughlin

Fiddle virtuoso Stewart and guitarist and piper Frank bring their special brand of magic to Bowhill.

The Black Bull of Norroway

An old witch offers a beautiful princess the chance to see into her future. Come along and see what happens.

Willie the Wolf is an outrageous but loveable rogue with a passion for food, motorbikes and rock and roll. He plans to eat Granny and Red Riding Hood but fails miserably because he can’t fix his motorbike. Fortunately, Granny is a brilliant mechanic but a terrible driver. Will it all end happily? Well, with a bit of help from the audience it certainly can.

Inspired by a little girl, her granny and a ticking clock, this is a charming tale using puppets, objects and lots of embroidery, about the wonderful things we get from our parents and grandparents and how we pass them down to our own children.

Arguably, Mary Stuart, Scotland’s most romanticised monarch, has inspired more music and poetry, more comment and controversy, than any other woman in Scottish history. Madeleine Taylor dons the famous heart-shaped hood, the ruff and the pearl-decked gown, takes up guitar and drum and raises voice to share the stirring songs, the vibrant verse, the pithy prose – and even a dainty dance – to acknowledge the legacy of impressions left by the extraordinary life and death of Scotland’s famous lady.

Les Amis D'Ono present The Magic Carousel

Written in the Celtic tradition, this romantic comedy draws us into the lives of ancient Britons and Romans and the legends surrounding them, with visionary dreams and voices from heaven adding to an exciting story whose happy outcome brings joyous surprises.
