MEMORY SPINNERS, SCOTTISH OPERA’S PROJECT FOR PEOPLE LIVING WITH DEMENTIA, RETURNS TO GLASGOW AND ST ANDREWS

Memory Spinners, our project designed to engage with people living with dementia through music and art, has begun at Glasgow’s St Columba’s Church and Holy Trinity Church Hall in St Andrews. Having launched in 2012, the sessions were put on hold for two years during the pandemic and this is the first time the groups have been able to come together since.

A REVIVAL OF SIR THOMAS ALLEN’S ACCLAIMED PRODUCTION OF DON GIOVANNI

This May, we are delighted to present a revival of our dark and atmospheric 2013 production of Don Giovanni at Theatre Royal Glasgow, Eden Court Inverness and Festival Theatre Edinburgh. Possible for the first time since the end of 2019, the tour also visits His Majesty’s Theatre, in Aberdeen. The 5 June performance in Edinburgh marks the 60th anniversary of our founding, which will spark a year of celebration.
