The Inverness Weekly · 22 Oct – 27 Oct
The Royal Ballet lands at Eden Court
Plus Hue and Cry, a late-October Coward revival, and a full moon fire walk out at Daviot.
A properly busy week ahead, with Eden Court doing a lot of the heavy lifting and Upstairs picking up the late shift. There's ballet, Coward, a weekender at An Seòmar, and — if you fancy something stranger — a fire walk on Sunday. Here's what we'd make room for.
The Royal Ballet: Manon
Tue 27 Oct – Sun 1 Nov · Eden Court Theatre
The Royal Ballet brings Manon to Eden Court for a six-night run from Tuesday 27 October. A rare chance to catch a company of this stature without leaving the city.
Hue and Cry
Thu 22 Oct, 7:00pm · Eden Court Theatre
Hue and Cry open the week at Eden Court on Thursday evening — a reliably good night out for anyone who grew up with Labour of Love on repeat.
Fallen Angels by Noël Coward
Thu 22 – Sat 31 Oct · Eden Court Theatre
Noël Coward's Fallen Angels runs at Eden Court from Thu 22 through Sat 31 October. Sharp, silly, and a good excuse for a theatre night.
Fallen Angels by Noël Coward – Live Cinema
Thu 22 – Sat 31 Oct · Eden Court Theatre
If you'd rather see it on the big screen, Eden Court is also showing a Live Cinema broadcast of Fallen Angels across the same dates.
IMOUT Weekender
Fri 23 – Sat 24 Oct · An Seòmar · £20 (weekend)
The IMOUT Weekender takes over An Seòmar on Friday and Saturday night. £20 gets you the whole weekend.
Alan Fletcher
Thu 22 Oct, 8:00pm · Upstairs Inverness · £22.50
Yes, that Alan Fletcher — Dr Karl himself — playing Upstairs on Thursday at 8pm. Tickets £22.50 and probably not something you'll see here again soon.
MacMuse – Live at Upstairs Inverness
Sat 24 Oct, 7:00pm · Upstairs Inverness
MacMuse play Upstairs on Saturday at 7pm for anyone wanting a straightforward live music night in town.
Full Moon Fire Walk – Daviot Steading
Sun 25 Oct, 1:00pm · Daviot Steading
A Full Moon Fire Walk out at Daviot Steading on Sunday afternoon. Not your average weekend plan, which is rather the point.
Three new spots on the map this week: Mad Hatters and XOKO Bakehouse and Cantina in the city centre, plus Moy Estate out at IV13 — worth a look.
Have a good week, and see you back here next Thursday.
