Featuring songs of THE PROCLAIMERS

Created and produced by DUNDEE REP THEATRE, Scotland’s leading production theatre

A jubilant, heartfelt musical about the power of home, the hearth, family and love

10-20 May 2023

A jubilant, heartfelt musical about the power of home, the hearth, family and love featuring the songs of The Proclaimers.

Sunshine on Leith follows the highs and lows of friends Davy and Ally as they search for normality after returning from a tour in Afghanistan. Families, friendships and life are not all plain sailing in this funny and moving story about love and life.

Originally a stage musical before being transformed into the 2013 feature film adaptation, Sunshine on Leith will leave you asking: How many miles would you walk for the people and places you love?

Sunshine on Leith is a vibrant, energetic piece of musical theatre, originally developed by the Dundee Rep Theatre and loved by audiences and critics alike.

This show is suitable for audiences aged 12+. Contains use of strobe lighting, depictions of war, depictions of illness/hospitalisation, and occasional strong language.

Sunshine on Leith plays at the Bridewell Theatre from 10-20 May 2023.

This amateur production is presented by arrangement with Music Theatre International. All authorised performance materials are also supplied by MTI. www.mtishows.co.uk

Sedos have really succeeded in getting across the theme of community in Sunshine on Leith, with rich harmonies and strong performances, this is a great chance to see this underperformed show.

As we’ve come to expect from Sedos, the show is slickly and imaginatively staged
