Presented exclusively by Scottish Ballet, Highland Fling is a ‘romantic wee ballet’ choreographed by Oliver Award-winning Matthew Bourne.

Inspired by La Sylphide, and with a wickedly wry Scotch twist, Highland Fling follows the antics of James – a young Scot with sex and love and rock and roll on his mind. Recently married to his beloved Effie, his addiction to excess finds him in the fateful company of a beguiling gothic fairy who leads him on a downward spiral into a weird and wonderful world far from the realities of life on the mean streets of Glasgow.

Highland Fling was originally produced by New Adventures.
