Unfortunately, Ceilidh the Musical is no longer take place at Brighton Dome Corn Exchange. We will be emailing ticket holders today (Fri 6 Nov) and your tickets will be refunded. You do not need to contact the Ticket Office. We're sorry for any disappointment and inconvenience caused. 

Ceilidh is a new immersive musical that invites you to step into the heart of one of Scotland’s oldest and most beloved traditions. It’s a gathering of songs, stories and dances, all while sharing a dram or two along the way.

Led by a lively caller, you’ll be swept up in a whirlwind of music and memories from the moment you walk through the door. But as the music builds and the night takes hold, a story begins to unfold. A family story. One of love, legacy, and why tonight's ceilidh matters more than most. 

Ceilidh premieres in the UK as part of Alan Cumming’s inaugural Pitlochry Festival Theatre season, following a sold out run in Baltimore and transforms Brighton Dome Corn Exchange for one week only. 

This joyous, irreverent, heart-pounding night is created by award-winning duo Scott Gilmour and Claire McKenzie (Noisemaker) and directed and choreographed by Tony Award-winner Sam Pinkleton (Oh, Mary!).

Presented by Grove Entertainment,  Barbara Whitman, Trafalgar Theatre Productions and Eilene Davidson Productions
