NOT TO BE MISSED FAMILY ENTERTAINMENT

The Emperor's New Kilt

The National Theatre of Scotland and Wee Stories present a hilarious re-imagining of the classic tale, The Emperor’s
New Clothes. An opulent and colourful production, full of pomp, stupidity and superb music.

Come with us to the Isle of Kiltie, an island just beyond the horizon that only clever people can see. The vain and tyrannical Laird of Kiltie owns everything in these parts, but he has only one true love, his clothes. More precisely,
his kilts. In the lead up to the most important day in the Kiltie calendar, his birthday, the Laird wants for one thing, a new kilt ‘the likes of which has never been seen’. Enter Mr Harris
and Mr Tweed, two dodgy weavers who give this gullible customer exactly what he asks for.

Wee Stories will wrap you up in the fabric of Kiltie society; have you on the edge of your seat with excitement, falling off your seat with laughter and possibly under it with
embarrassment as the Laird exposes what a true
Scotsman wears beneath his kilt.

Previous inventive and imaginative Wee Stories productions have included Arthur and Treasure Island.

Wee Stories/NTS were winners at the Critics Awards for Theatre in Scotland!
For Best Show for Children and Young People.

"Wee Stories stepped out onto the big stage, with a little help from the National Theatre of Scotland, in a brilliantly realised retelling of Hans Christian Andersen's fairy story. This was just a wonder to watch as the company drew their audience in, delivering them to a place where anything could happen. The joy of the production was the way that it transformed the intimate art of storytelling onto the big stage.. A stunning piece of theatre on any level."
