The sense of anticipation surrounding Alan Cumming‘s debut season as Artistic Director of Pitlochry Festival Theatre has been palpable. His star quality is matched by his ambition with a slate of bold and broad production choices, not least Once. The only play to win Tonys, Grammys, Oliviers and an Oscar (for best song in the movie version). What’s more, Cumming has enticed the original production team, lock, stock and barrel to the Highlands.
