Gian Carlo Menotti’s 1940’s two-act opera, The Medium, is the dark and eerie tale of Madame Flora, a con-woman who cheats her clients through staged séances with the help of her daughter, Monica, and a mute orphan boy, Toby. Madame Flora descends into madness when she experiences a true ghostly encounter and, unable to grasp what is happening to her, lashes out in drunken rage!

THE ELECTRIFYING MR JOHNSTON

A new play about one of Scotland’s great unsung heroes, Tom Johnston, once described by Churchill as the ‘King of Scotland’, focusing on his struggles to bring “light to the glens.” Through incredible feats of engineering and political manoeuvring, he sought to transform the lives of everyone in the north of Scotland by bringing hydroelectric power to the Highlands & Islands.

A story of power-and the struggle for it.

Saturday 16th March , 7.30pm

The Glasgow Islay Gaelic Choir dates back to 1944 when it was formed by members of the Glasgow Islay Association, one of the many territorial organisations serving the needs of the many Highlanders who had moved to the city for work. In recognition of the 150th anniversary of that Association, in 2012, the ladies in the choir now wear the newly designed Glasgow Islay Association Tartan.

While in the immediate post-war years many of the members would have had connections with the home island, today’s members have backgrounds in both Gaelic and non Gaelic speaking areas of Scotland and even beyond.
