Join The McDougalls for some musical mayhem
Some five-star family fun is heading towards Ardrishaig next week when Scotland’s celebrated children’s theatre troupe pay a visit to the area, writes Fiona Scott.
The McDougalls return with a new live musical show for all the family. Big Splash will be performed at Ardrishaig at 2pm on Wednesday July 27 before heading to Campbeltown on Thursday July 28.
Wave hello to Max, Auntie Aggie and Morag the Rabbit, and swim deep under the sea for an enchanting adventure.
Something fishy is going on in the mystical underwater kingdom, and the mermaids and deep-sea creatures need help. Will The McDougalls save the sea?
Auntie Aggie, one of the show’s stars, said: ‘We can’t wait to visit Ardrishaig and see all the brilliant work that has been done to the hall there and return to Campbeltown, where we had such fun with our friends at Christmas.
‘Where better to have a Big Splash than on the banks of Loch Gilp and Campbeltown Loch?
‘We need your help to solve the quest and sing the songs and we’d love it, too, if you could dress up as a sea creature.
‘If you’ve never seen a
McDougalls show before – your kids will love it!’
A spokesperson for West Kintyre Promotions CIC commented: ‘We are always delighted to bring The McDougalls round to Kintyre and this year we are excited to be working with Ardrishaig Hall too.
‘Whenever The McDougalls come up with a new show, they are straight on to us to make sure we are included in their touring plans and, as a not-for-profit organisation, we have been able to hold ticket prices steady this year as we know it is tough times.
‘This is a terrific way to treat the kids over the summer holidays. We hope to see as many of you at the shows as possible.’
The show is recommended for children up to aged eight, but big kids and grown ups will love it too.
