Pitlochry Festival Theatre have announced the cast of its forthcoming new production of Sunshine on Leith, which plays at the venue from 17 November-23 December.

Sunshine on Leith’s exciting cast will feature Finlay Bain (Trainspotting Live, Seabright Productions) as Ally, Robbie Scott (Peter Pan and Wendy, Pitlochry Festival Theatre) as Davy, Sinead Kenny (My Fair Lady, West End) as Yvonne, Keith Macpherson (Stan and Ollie, BBC Films) as Rab, Scottish singer Alyson Orr (Sunshine on Leith, Pitlochry Festival Theatre) as Jean, Jessica Dives (A Christmas Carol, Shakespeare North Playhouse) as Eilidh, Fiona Wood (Peter Pan and Wendy, Pitlochry Festival Theatre) as Liz, and Charlotte Grayson (Lord of the Rings, Watermill Theatre) as Hazel.

The cast is completed by Trudy Ward (Gypsy, Pitlochry Festival Theatre), Jake Reynolds (Grease, West End), and Royal Conservatoire of Scotland graduates Callum Marshall (Sunshine on Leith, UK tour), and James Dawoud (Aladdin, Beacon Arts Centre).

The production will be directed by Pitlochry Festival Theatre’s Artistic Director Elizabeth Newman.

Sunshine on Leith tells the story of returning service members Davy and Ally from war overseas, to be confronted with civilian life, relationships, blind dates, and new responsibilities. As the pair embark on intertwining journeys of love, they begin to question what home really means to them as they rediscover their sense of identity.

Set to the classic songs of The Proclaimers, including “I’m Gonna Be (500 Miles), “Letter from America” and of course the emotive “Sunshine on Leith”, this feel-good Scottish musical asks the question, would you walk 500 miles for love?
