Dundee/Edinburgh Partnership

Dundee Rep Ensemble and the Royal Lyceum Theatre, Edinburgh, have announced a two year partnership.

Launching the partnership later this year the two producing theatres will co-produce Mary Queen of Scots Got Her Head Chopped Off by Liz Lochhead. Directed by Lyceum Associate Artist Tony Cownie, the production will feature leading members of Dundee Rep Ensemble, Kevin Lennon, Anne Louise Ross and Emily Winter.

Mary Queen of Scots Got Her Head Chopped Off will open at the Lyceum in September then play at Dundee Rep Theatre in October.

Dundee Rep Theatre's Artistic Director, James Brining said, "Although Dundee Rep Ensemble has visited the theatre a number of times in the last few years, we are very please to be working more creatively with another of Scotland's leading producers on the production of this classic play. It will also be great to welcome Liz Lochhead's work back at the Rep."

Royal Lyceum Theatre Edinburgh Artistic Director Mark Thomson added, "Our company is always looking for partnerships that enhance our work in quality and exposure. We are delighted to be co-producing with Dundee Rep ensemble for the first time. The two year partnership means both companies will join our creative forces to create two theatre pieces that will be seen in both cities. We are both excited about this new development which symbolizes our appetite for collaboration and adventure."
