Returning to the Edinburgh Fringe, to the venue where it won a Herald Angel Award and built a reputation as a smash hit of modern Scottish theatre, Thunderstruck is the tragic, comic and epic tale of the greatest bagpiper that ever lived.

'A stunning, staggering piece of modern Scottish folk theatre' ***** (BritishTheatreGuide.info). 'Elucidating, charming and rip-roaringly inspirational' ***** (TheQR.co.uk).
