Macrobert Arts Centre, Stirling's cultural hub, is at last celebrating its monumental 50th Anniversary year after the pandemic postponed celebrations due to start in September 2021. With a programme of events running until September 2022, the venue will be welcoming audiences back for comedy, theatre, music and visual arts, as well as engaging the community in a range of cultural initiatives.

One of the most iconic and best-loved Scottish plays, Tony Roper's The Steamie, returns for a limited run at the SSE Hydro in Glasgow from 27 until 31 December. 13-strong dance and music ensemble joins the starry cast of Louise McCarthy (Magrit), Gayle Telfer Stevens (Dolly), Mary McCusker (Mrs Culfeathers), Fiona Wood (Doreen) and Harry Ward (Andy) to present a revamped show with a bigger set, more songs and new dance numbers, including the full cast and ensemble spectacular opening with a new song 'Glasgow' and a very special surprise for audiences!

Scotbeef, producers of the famous Galloway's mince, become sponsors of Tony Roper's The Steamie at SSE Hydro this December.

The Steamie is a Scottish theatre classic; an ode to the hard-working women of the 1950's and to a bygone Glasgow. The young Doreen envisions a new future, while Mrs Culfeathers looks back to the past - the play is a snapshot of a society, of a time and a cross section of strong women, all rolled up in Roper's hilarious comedy.

Just when you thought it was safe to pack away the night time TENA Lady's, THEY'RE BACK! The tan has barely faded from Agnes and Sadie's thick skin and they're in trouble again, lip synching for their mother-tucking lives!

Constables Blunt and Gobbel have one last duty to fulfil before they clock off on Christmas Eve: to tell the old couple at number 58 some terrible, terrible news. But what if the shock is too much for the frail pair to bear? Maybe they'd be better off not knowing. And maybe the hapless constables would be better off if they hadn't got themselves stuck in the middle of a lynching organized by a group of anti-paedophile vigilantes.

Tron Theatre Company's summer productions have become synonymous with farcical pitch-black humour and Anthony Neilson's The Lying Kind is certainly no different - with multiple misunderstandings, a stray Chihuahua and an apparently transvestite vicar contributing to the escalating mayhem.

???????That's Fife Festival returns to the Kingdom in April 2017 with an eclectic programme of comedy, theatre, spoken word, magic and family entertainment.

The Dolls are embarking on a 2017 tour which is already selling out at venues across Scotland, with a stop at the King's Theatre, Glasgow at the end of April.

David Harrower's play, 365, currently being staged by the National Theatre of Scotland at the Lyric Theatre, Hammersmith following a successful run at this year's Edinburgh International Festival, is a quite stunning piece of theatre that examines the experiences of a disparate group of 'care-leavers' as they embark upon the frightening first steps to independence and adulthood.
