Dundee Rep

Dundee Rep and Scottish Dance Theatre sits at the cultural heart of Dundee as a centre of creative excellence. The Organisation looks outwards, creating and delivering work for local, national and international audiences, with learning at the heart. As a leading force in Scottish theatre, Dundee Rep Theatre has created a number of award-winning and award-nominated productions, including the world premiere of Let the Right One In, The Cheviot, The Stag and The Black, Black Oil, the Scottish premiere of Pulitzer Prize-winning August: Osage County, the world premieres of new musicals No Love Songs and Oor Wullie and the 80th Anniversary season world premiere of Peter Arnott’s Tay Bridge. Over the course of nine decades, Dundee Rep and Scottish Dance Theatre has been at the heart of performance in Scotland, and grown into a world-class organisation, with two artistic forces based in Dundee, travelling to and reaching the rest of the world.

Institut Francais D'Ecosse

28 September 2024

In 2017, after having been occupied by the County for almost two centuries, the building also known as the Lothian Chambers became the new seat of the Consulate General of France in Edinburgh and of the Institut Français d’Ecosse. Whilst the Consulate General provides support to French citizens living in Scotland, the French Institute, as part of a worldwide network, promotes French Culture and encourages cultural exchanges with Scotland. It offers a wide range of activities and shows throughout the year, in French and in English: French courses, talks and conferences, activities for kids, live music events, theatre performances, wine tastings, cinema screenings, exhibitions. It has a library with an important book and media collection in French and it is even an official venue at the Fringe! The move also enabled the Royal Scottish National Orchestra and the Edinburgh Art Festival to set up offices in one of the city's most prestigious locations.

Royal Lyceum Theatre Edinburgh

new

28 September 2024

The Royal Lyceum Theatre Edinburgh sits at the heart of the city in our 140-year-old building welcoming over 100,000 people each year. At the Lyceum, we believe that theatre is good for the soul. Led by our Artistic Director David Greig, we bring the best theatre from around the world to Edinburgh and share the best of Scottish theatre with the world. We rehearse in our studio space across the road from the auditorium, and our costumes and sets are designed and built in house at our workshop in Roseburn, Edinburgh. Community is at the heart of what we do. In 2024, our Creative Learning department celebrates 25 years of developing and nurturing talent. Our Youth Theatre programmes have been the starting point for many Scottish actors, fostering newfound confidence and lifelong friendships. We also host 60+ writing groups, technical courses and training.
