Morning folks. Not what we wanted to share with you but our plan to show another performance for Sunday isn’t possible. We have planned with the cast and crew to fit in times and tried to see if boats could workaround to get family over to see it, but unfortunately, refit and weather are still against us.

Friday Night

We have 35 tickets available on the door. If you are booked for Saturday and want to swap nights, you can use your ticket for Friday on the door.

Saturday Night

We have made 16 extra seats available. You can use your Friday ticket on the door but it is first come first served. There will also be a bench at the front for peedie ones to sit on that will help free up seats for anyone trying to make it.

Transferrable tickets on the door on both nights are on a first come first served basis. We have had so many messages after a sell out night that we just can’t prioritise and are still working away today dealing with the impact of travel disruption for our cast and crew to run opening night. We’ll try our best to get you all in.

If anyone can’t make it, we will refund tickets.

The show goes on! Thanks again for supporting.

2026-04-10 - 2026-04-12 | To be announced
We’re delighted to support the Stronsay Fieldwalking Survey, and volunteers are warmly invited to take part!Continuing the successful work of Naomi Woodward in 2007, Ben Elliott from UHI’s Archaeology Institute will be leading three days of archaeological survey on Stronsay – 10th, 11th and 12th April.The survey will involve fieldwalking – the careful searching of ploughed fields for archaeological artefacts, which are then systematically recorded. The aim is to help document the wider distribution of archaeological remains across the Stronsay landscape and identify evidence of human activity from different periods of the island’s past.There are several ways to get involved:• Join the team walking the fields to help locate artefacts• Help with sorting and recording finds at the Stronsay Development Trust Community GreenhouseThis is a fantastic opportunity to contribute to uncovering more of Stronsay’s rich history, and no prior experience is required.If you’d like to volunteer or find out more, please contact Ben Elliott at: benjamin.elliott@uhi.ac.uk
