South Lanarkshire Leisure and Culture

An Arts Enigma Theatre production. Written by Paul Macbeth. Directed by Paul Moore.

Never lose the dream...

It’s 1968 and The Fab Four are at the top of the charts. In Glasgow’s East End six schoolboys are about to move on to University and the university of life (or a wife!) but harbour a dream of becoming “The Sensational Six” with their love of The Beatles, The Stones and all the songs that are Top of The Pops. Songs of love’s young dreams and dreamers.

Will they be Top of The Pops...or will their schoolboy ways turn their dreams into a nightmare? Will they be a hit, or will the reality of tenement life make them miss out?

Full of 60s throwbacks and 60s sounds, including original songs by the band, this is a charmingly funny and poignant, but true story.

It’s time to try the high notes of Defying Gravity for yourself! Get your witches together for two special sing-along screenings of Wicked, with the lyrics on our big screen to ensure you don’t miss a beat.  

Wicked, the untold story of the witches of Oz, stars Emmy, Grammy and Tony winning powerhouse Cynthia Erivo (Harriet, Broadway’s The Color Purple) as Elphaba, a young woman, misunderstood because of her unusual green skin, who has yet to discover her true power, and Grammy-winning, multi-platinum recording artist and global superstar Ariana Grande as Glinda, a popular young woman, gilded by privilege and ambition, who has yet to discover her true heart.

The two meet as students at Shiz University in the fantastical Land of Oz and forge an unlikely but profound friendship. Their extraordinary adventures in Oz will ultimately see them fulfil their destinies as Glinda the Good and the Wicked Witch of the West.
