Join Scottish Opera in commemorating one of one of the most dramatic periods in Scottish history; the Wars of the Jacobite Risings.

Let’s go back in time, exactly 300 years ago to the year 1719, the Jacobites and their Spanish allies converge upon Glen Sheil in the Western Highlands to prepare themselves for battle with the approaching Hanoverian troops. But the Jacobites have more to worry about than their enemies! Will in- fighting, missed opportunities and poor communications prove to be their undoing?
