In 2021 we were thrilled to partner with Scotland’s leading podcast network, The Big Light, to adapt our stage show ATLANTIC: A Scottish Story into a new 8-part podcast series.
ATLANTIC is inspired by the true stories of one of Scotland’s most remote and forgotten islands; St Kilda. It follows the dramatic arc of an island and community out of the edge of the world, and is our first podcast musical!
Cast include Kirsty Findlay (Our Ladies of Perpetual Succour), David Hayman (Boy in the Striped Pyjamas/The Nest), Blythe Duff (Harry Potter and the Cursed Child/Taggart), Danielle Fiamanya (The Colour Purple/& Juliet), Kate Dickie (Game of Thrones/Prometheus), Richard Rankin (Outlander), and Gaelic/Scots singer Ainsley Hamill (www.ainsleyhamill.com).
Each episode runs between 30-40 minutes featuring original songs, traditional Gaelic music and real life recordings from St Kilda itself; captured by award-winning sound recordist Chris Watson (www.chriswatson.net)
For more information on the cast, band and creative team head over to The Big Light.
