Join us for an evening with Alan Cumming, in aid of The Lyceum, hosted by beloved broadcaster, Kirsty Wark.

Alan Cumming is a true polymath: an award-winning actor, author, photographer, podcaster, presenter and more. With projects ranging from solo dance-theatre to his recently Emmy-nominated turn as the host of global cultural phenomenon, The Traitors, Alan also has four honorary doctorates, and over forty awards for his humanitarian and philanthropic work.

From the beloved double act Victor and Barry (created with drama school pal Forbes Masson) who were the toast of the Edinburgh Festival in the 1980s, to his multi award-winning role as the Emcee in Cabaret on Broadway and in the West End, theatre is in Alan’s blood. He first appeared on The Lyceum stage in 1986 as part of the repertory company, playing roles in Tartuffe, and A Streetcar Named Desire.

In this special one-off event as part of our ‘Evening with…’ fundraising series, we welcome Alan back to The Lyceum stage, and look forward to an intimate and personal insight into his life and career. Prepare your burning questions as afterward there will be a Q&A session.

VIP tickets are not only the best seats in the house, but include a meet and greet in the Henry Irving Room after the show with a chance to chat with Alan over a complimentary drink.
