One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest

One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest

13 May 2026 - 16 May 2026

This stage adaptation of Ken Keseys celebrated novel explores the brutality of life in a mental institution with humour, candour and unforgettable characters. After being convicted of a petty crime, a charming, rebellious rogue named McMurphy contrives to serve his short sentence in an airy mental institution rather than in prison. This, he soon learns, was a mistake. He immediately clashes with the authoritarian head nurse, Nurse Ratched. Despite Ratcheds strict reign, McMurphy quickly takes over the yard, leading others out of introversion, staging a revolt so that they can watch the baseball World Series on television, and arranging a rollicking midnight party with booze and women. But McMurphys brash insubordination will have its consequences. Leitheatre is an amateur theatre company based in Edinburgh, founded in 1946 at Kirkgate Church in Leith.

Calendar Girls

Calendar Girls

27 May 2026 - 30 May 2026

A group of friends who attend a Yorkshire Womens Institute are inspired by a tragedy to pose for a charity calendar with a difference - no more photos of Wharfedale bridges or Norman churches for them. Overcoming their initial reserve, the friends drop their dressing gowns to do their version of a glamour calendar, their modesty spared only by artfully placed cakes, knitting and flower arrangements. Puzzling their husbands, mortifying their children and riding the wrath of the outraged WI, they spark a global phenomenon. But as media interest snowballs, the Calendar Girls find themselves exposed in ways theyd never expected, revealing more than theyd ever planned.
Taverna Miresia - Mario, Bella, Anastasia
Discover a surreal tragedy in this visually stunning performance from emerging star of European theatre, Mario Banushi. Mario Banushi invites us into his family’s Albanian restaurant, the Taverna Miresia, for a surreal exploration of memory and grief. Banushi's larger-than-life father has recently passed away, leaving behind Mario and his sisters - Bella and Anastasia - to confront the ghosts of their past. In Banushi’s wordless, visually stunning performance, domestic spaces take on a dreamlike quality. Surreal flashbacks are underscored by the haunting vocals of Greek singer, Savina Yannatou - from an Albanian lullaby to improvised laments. Recently awarded the Silver Lion Award at the Venice Biennale, Banushi is an emerging artist shaping the future of European theatre. His unsettling yet sublime performance pushes boundaries, merging Greek tragedy with ancient Balkan rituals and a cinematic aesthetic. Non-verbal performance
Hostile

Hostile

8 Aug 2026 - 11 Aug 2026

A work for families. Everyday objects come to life in this family-friendly one-man Spaghetti Western. A cowboy is stuck in the desert. He’s got a price on his head: wanted - dead or alive. But right now, he needs water, shade from the sun and a chance to escape from those pesky snakes and vultures. In this family-friendly one-man show, Olivier Rannou stars as a Spaghetti Western cowboy. Swaggering across the stage, he changes the set before your very eyes, creating a mesmerising performance. His horse transforms into the desert. Cacti become electricity pylons. A saloon becomes a bandit. With French theatre company Bakélite’s commitment to the atrociously comic, get absorbed in this cowboy’s antics as he tries to escape the desert, strolling into saloons and facing gold diggers along the way. Supported by Flure Grossart with additional support from the Institut français du Royaume-Uni Non-verbal performance
