Find yourself a hand to hold

CEILIDH is a brand new musical that invites you to step into one of Scotland’s oldest and most beloved traditions – a gathering to share songs, stories and, most importantly, dancing!

Led by a lively caller and stomping folk band, CEILIDH sweeps you up in a whirlwind of music and memories – all while sharing a dram or two along the way. But as the reels build, and partners spin the night away, a story begins to unfold: a story about a family. One of love, legacy, and why tonight’s ceilidh matters more than most.

Created by the award-winning writing duo Scott Gilmour and Claire McKenzie aka Noisemaker (Oor Wullie, SCOTS), and directed and choreographed by Tony Award-winner Sam Pinkleton (Oh, Mary!), CEILIDH is a joyous, irreverent, heart-pounding celebration of Scotland’s culture, community, and the power of gathering together.
