Edinburgh Theatres And Cinemas
Edinburgh has an exceptionally high number of
theatres for a city of its size. The
Traverse is Scotland’s leading theatre for new writing and
the Royal Lyceum is home to one of the country’s
most esteemed theatre companies. The Festival
Theatre, the King’s Theatre and the Edinburgh Playhouse are essential venues for
major touring productions.
The wider city region also offers a range of
art house cinemas, theatres and music venues to enthral and
entertain. For example, the Tolbooth in
Stirling is acknowledged as one of Scotland’s best venues for folk,
jazz and world music. Kirkcaldy’s Adam Smith
Theatre and the Brunton
Theatre in Musselburgh are also popular live
music venues.
