THE GUID SISTERS from the Original French Québécois Les Belles-Soeurs by Michel Tremblay Translated by Bill Findlay and Martin Bowman The Royal Lyceum Theatre Edinburgh and the National Theatre of Scotland present THE GUID SISTERS from the original French Québécois Les Belles-Soeurs by Michel Tremblay translated by Bill Findlay and Martin Bowman A co-production between the Royal Lyceum Theatre, Edinburgh and the National Theatre of Scotland Supported by Bank of Scotland Pioneering Partnership Lyceum Theatre, Edinburgh 21 September – 13 October 2012 and Kings’ Theatre, Glasgow: 23 – 27 October 2012 A big win and a night in, when the girls get together nothing’s left to chance! Germaine Lauzon wins a million Green Shield stamps. Germaine is in for a windfall but the only way she can collect the money is to stick each stamp into a book. Calling upon her family, friends and neighbours to help, the play listens in as this formidable group of women talk about life, the world and the men in their lives. This “rich, raucous and gritty” Scots version by Bill Findlay and Martin Bowman of Québécois writer Michel Tremblay's play Les Belles -Soeurs was premiered at the Tron Theatre, Glasgow in 1989. Findlay went on to trans-create eight Tremblay plays, with co-translator, Martin Bowman. This successful partnership has made Tremblay one of the most performed international playwrights in Scotland. The Guid Sisters is not only regarded as a classic contemporary Scot’s play but it is also timely theatrical portrayal of women grappling with economic survival. Following recent successes with 27 and Dunsinane , two major Scottish producing companies join forces to present The Guid Sisters , directed by Serge Denoncourt who is one of Canada’s leading directors with over 80 productions to his credit including his work with Cirque du Soleil. The Guid Sisters is Serge Denoncourt’s favourite play and Serge is Michel Tremblay’s director of choice. Serge Denoncourt says: For me it was the first play I have ever read, when I was 9 years old. One year later I knew the play by heart and was doing a one man show "Guid Sisters" in the street for my friends and neighbours. 20 years later I directed the play for the first time and subsequently many, many times. It became a fetish play, a lucky charm for me. 40 years later Mark Thomson offered me the chance to direct a production of "Guid Sisters" in Scotland.” The production features a stellar cast of female Scottish acting talent including Kathryn Howden and Karen Dunbar. This will be Karen’s first appearance with both the Lyceum Theatre and the National Theatre of Scotland. Kathryn and Karen are joined by Romana Abercromby, Sally Armstrong, Jo Cameron Brown, Maureen Carr, Hannah Donaldson, Lisa Gardner, Molly Innes, Jayne McCarry, Sally Reid, Anne Louise Ross, Gayle Runciman, Marianne Tees and Gail Watson. The full creative team is Director Serge Denoncourt,; Set Designer Francis O’Connor; Costume Designer Megan Baker; Lighting Designer Charles Balfour; Composer Philip Pinsky and Assistant Director Amanda Gaughan.

  • Inventory Acc.13182 Edith Macarthur
    Acc.13182 October 2010 Inventory Acc.13182 Edith Macarthur National Library of Scotland Manuscripts Division George IV Bridge Edinburgh EH1 1EW Tel: 0131-466 2812 Fax: 0131-466 2811 E-mail: [email protected] © Trustees of the National Library of Scotland Papers, circa 1942-2006, of Edith Macarthur, actor (b.1926). The collection includes scripts, photographs, press cuttings and other items of theatre and television memorabilia. Edith Macarthur’s stage career has taken her to most major producing theatres in Scotland, and to many in England. The variety of her range is demonstrated in the collection, from her early days with respected amateur company, the Ardrossan and Saltcoats Players, to acclaim with prestigious companies such as the Royal Lyceum, Citizens’, Gateway, Bristol Old Vic, Pitlochry Festival, Traverse and Royal Shakespeare. Leading roles in the canon of major plays by Arthur Miller, James Bridie, Anton Chekhov, Eugene O’Neill, Noel Coward and their like, and various acclaimed productions of ‘The Thrie Estaites’, established her stage reputation. Alongside runs a vein of comedy and variety, from the ‘Five Past Eight Shows’ of the 1950s at the Citizens’, to regularly playing Cinderella’s Fairy Godmother in pantomime during the 1980s and 1990s. There is also a considerable body of television work, from early series such as ‘The Borderers’ and ‘Sutherland’s Law’, and the renowned 1970s adaptation of ‘Sunset Song’, to the long-running Scottish Television soap, ‘High Road’. A milestone was the 1993 film ‘The Long Roads’ by John McGrath. At about this time Miss Macarthur was coming to the attention of less mainstream theatre-producers in Scotland.

  • November 17, 2016 Still Game's Sanjeev Kohli Opens New Hospice
    November 17, 2016 Still Game’s Sanjeev Kohli opens new hospice shop For immediate release Credit: Martin Shields Sanjeev Kohli, who plays Navid, the nation’s favourite shopkeeper in smash BBC Scotland comedy Still Game, helped celebrate the opening of the new Prince & Princess of Wales Hospice shop in Battlefield, Glasgow. The Glasgow actor, who also appears in River City, surprised shoppers at the store at 126 Battlefield Road in the city’s south side when he appeared behind the counter. “I’ve been involved in fundraising and done a few things over the years for the hospice, it’s a great cause,” said Sanjeev. “The work that is done there is wonderful, and I’m delighted to give them my support. I’m also a fan of a second-hand shop, so these are two very good causes I’m helping today.” This is the hospice’s 18th shop to open in the city, raising much-needed money to provide free palliative care to the people of Glasgow. “Our hospice shops play a vital role in bringing in the £3.1million we need to raise annually to provide free palliative care to the people of Glasgow,” said Rhona Baillie, chief executive of The Prince & Princess of Wales Hospice. “We can’t thank our supporters enough for not just making donations to our shops, but also coming in to spend their money.” Donations are welcome at the shop at the Battlefield Road shop, from clothes and home ware to CDs, books and DVDs. Hospice care provides support for the physical and emotional problems related to a life- limiting illness for patients and for those close to them at home, in the ward and in day services.

  • A Doll's House
    The National Theatre of Scotland and Royal Lyceum Theatre present SCOTTISH PREMIERE A Doll’s House By Henrik Ibsen, in a version by Zinnie Harris Directed by Graham McLaren Set Design by Robert Innes Hopkins, Lighting Design by Tim Mitchell, Sound Design by Nick Sagar Cast includes: Robert Cavanah, Brian McCardie, Lucianne McEvoy, Kevin McMonagle, Amy Manson, Sharon Young At the Royal Lyceum Theatre, Edinburgh from 16 April to 4 May 2013 Press Performance: Wednesday 17 April at 7.45pm Following the success of the critically acclaimed production The Guid Sisters in 2012, the National Theatre of Scotland is delighted to be working in partnership again with the Royal Lyceum Theatre, Edinburgh to bring this new version of Henrik Ibsen’s A Doll’s House to the Scottish stage for the first time. A stellar cast of Scottish performers has been assembled, with the lead role of Nora being played by Amy Manson. This will mark Amy’s return to the Lyceum, where she won Best Performance (Female) in 2008 for her role in Six Characters in Search of an Author at the Critics' Awards for Theatre in Scotland. Since then she has gone on to enjoy success in British film and television. A Doll’s House caused outrage both in its style and content when first staged in 1879. Zinnie Harris has transposed her version from late 19th-century Norway to Edwardian London and shifted the tale of intrigue, fraud and betrayal from the world of finance to that of politics. Her version has strong contemporary resonances, revealing a world where duty, power and hypocrisy rule, and brings modern sensibilities to bear on Nora’s marriage, at the heart of the play.
