Song Society
Deep in the heart of the mysterious Song Society, memories and feelings are filed away to make room for new ones. But when a stubborn case resists being archived, the Songkeeper is pulled into a journey that challenges everything she knows about the stories that make us whole. A one-person musical by award-winning writer/performer Florencia Iriondo, woven with an original acoustic folk-pop score that echoes long after the final note.
Pop Off, Michelangelo!
After a smash hit 2024 season and fresh off a 9-week London run, best-pals-turned-bitter-rivals Michelangelo and Leonardo da Vinci return to Edinburgh! A bloodthirsty friar is on the hunt for homosexuals in Renaissance Italy, just when childhood friends Mike and Leo realise they both like boys. Terrified, they devise a foolproof plan to gain God’s forgiveness: simply become the greatest religious artists of all time. Can Michelangelo gaslight, gatekeep, and girlboss his way to the Vatican? Will Leonardo ever shut up about his helicopter? Featuring an original electropop score as infectious as the bubonic plague, Pop Off, Michelangelo! is the "endlessly clever" (★★★★ Scotsman) and "fabulously entertaining" (★★★★ Broadway Baby) adventure you won't want to miss!
Mary, Queen of Rock!
The year is 1561. The Scottish Reformation has enforced an outright ban on rock'n'roll. Cue the arrival of Mary Stuart, one of the world's biggest and most iconic musical artists... who happens to be the undisputed Queen of Rock! With the Scottish nobles and her cousin in England against her, can Mary get the country rocking? Or will heads roll?
