‘...if this is the future of Scottish Opera, it’s in excellent hands.’
- ScotsGay Arts on Rubble (2022)

Scottish Opera Young Company moves between centuries to tell stories of young people finding connection and survival within – and sometimes despite – their respective insular worlds.

By connecting the two operas on a single Hebridean-inspired set that transforms before the audience’s eyes, this immersive double bill shows the grit it takes to survive within and against a harsh landscape and even harsher mob mentalities. Directed by Flora Emily Thomson (As The Seasons Turn 2022) and conducted by SOYC Artistic Director Chris Gray, a cast of 11 young performers bring these two stories to life
