Sunshine on Leith

Your wish is our command! Aladdin is flying to Perth Theatre for the 2023 festive season!

For a proper Scottish start to your Christmas season, take a trip to Pitlochry Festival Theatre to tap your toe along to the fantastic songs from world-renowned Scottish band The Proclaimers in the inspiring production of Sunshine on Leith.

1st - 31st December Perth Theatre

Aladdin and Hank E’s mammy Margarita McTwankie is getting in a lather trying to keep her mobile laundry business from folding after Abigail McKrankie, The Countess of Killiekrankie, hung them all out to dry. And, if McKrankie has her evil way, she’ll involve Aladdin in her ‘get rich quick’ plans to find the cave of pleasures, treasures and immeasurable measures.

Join Aladdin and his family as they get in a spin trying to keep the laundry above water under very trying circumstances and meet some others along the way.

17th November – 23rd December Pitlochry Festival Theatre

This funny and moving play features two Edinburgh natives who return to their hometown after serving in war-torn countries overseas, to discover what ‘home’ really means.

THINK YOU KNOW SCOTLAND’S HISTORY? THINK AGAIN.

The new Perth Museum will open its doors in Spring 2024 after a £26.5 million redevelopment project. This world-class cultural and heritage attraction will highlight the fascinating objects and stories that put Perth and Kinross at the centre of Scotland’s story.

At its heart will sit the Stone of Destiny, also known as the Stone of Scone, one of Scotland and the UK’s most significant historical objects. Returning to Perthshire for the first time in over 700 years, the Stone will be the centrepiece of the new Museum and will be free for all to view.

Alongside the Stone, the new Museum will display Perth and Kinross’s Recognised Collections of National Significance as well as iconic loans and exhibitions from the UK and abroad.

The Museum will be housed in a heritage Edwardian building that once served as a gathering place hosting everything from markets and concerts, to political conferences and wrestling matches. This historic venue has been transformed into a major visitor attraction by award-winning architects Mecanoo. The Museum will also feature a café, shop, and learning and events spaces.
