SIMPOL Staging

This marks the final moment of our time at Capital Theatres - Festival Theatre, Studio & King's Theatre Festival Theatre before we emigrate back along the road to the King's Theatre.
We would like to thank all the staff at the theatre for looking after us and allowing us to play on their stage - it's been an absolute privilege!
We look forward to seeing some of the staff back at the Auld Lady of Leven St and we're excited to see all the wonderful work that's been going on there.

(Apologies to the crew who missed this photo - it was a last minute request to take it)

And we're off! "Break a leg" to all the cast and crew of Southern Light - Edinburgh
