Director & choreography: Matthew Bourne
Music: La Sylphide - Herman Severin Løvenskjold performed live by the Scottish Ballet Orchestra
Presented exclusively by Scottish Ballet, Highland Fling is a ‘romantic wee ballet’ choreographed by Olivier Award-winning Matthew Bourne.
Inspired by La Sylphide, and with a wickedly wry Scotch twist, Highland Fling follows the antics of James – a young Scot with sex and love and rock and roll on his mind. Recently married to his beloved Effie, his addiction to excess finds him in the fateful company of a beguiling gothic fairy who leads him on a downward spiral into a weird and wonderful world far from the realities of life on the mean streets of Glasgow.
Highland Fling was originally produced by New Adventures.
'This Highland Fling is a rampageous hoot' **** The Herald
'Not only do these dancers have great technique, they can carry a character with confidence and credibility.' **** The Scotsman
'To say that Scottish Ballet's new production of Highland Fling is a copper-bottomed, fur-lined, nailed-on smash hit would be seriously to understate matters.' STV.tv
