Ceilidh is a brand new musical that brings Scottish tradition to life in a vibrant, immersive evening of song, dance and storytelling. Led by a lively caller, audiences are drawn into a whirlwind of music, movement and celebration, where participation and performance blur from the moment the night begins. As the ceilidh unfolds, a powerful family story emerges beneath the revelry, exploring love, legacy and why this gathering matters more than it first seems.
Fresh from runs in Baltimore and Pitlochry, Ceilidh now makes its London premiere. Created by award-winning duo Scott Gilmour and Claire McKenzie (Noisemaker) and directed and choreographed by Tony Award-winner Sam Pinkleton (Oh, Mary!), this is an irreverent, joyful and heart-pounding new musical experience.
Secure your Ceilidh tickets early to be part of this unforgettable night of music, stories and connection.
Ceilidh reimagines one of Scotland’s oldest traditions as a full-scale theatrical event. Guests are invited into a shared space of music, dancing and storytelling, guided by a caller who leads the room through an ever-building celebration.
What begins as a communal ceilidh gradually reveals a deeper narrative: a family story shaped by love, memory and inheritance, unfolding in real time alongside the festivities. It is both party and play, intimacy and spectacle.
