Highland Fling tells the story of James, a young Glaswegian who is lured from his nuptial bed by an unearthly siren. As his love for this beautiful ‘Sylph’ becomes an obsession, he embarks on a journey that takes him from the mean streets and nightclubs of Glasgow into a magical world beyond.

This gothic fable of winged fairies and kilted laddies – filled with all the wild excesses of romanticism – has been given an ingenious make-over by Matthew Bourne and is packed with all the trademark wit, sparkle and humour of the recent Swan Lake and Nutcracker!
