Eden Court audiences will be invited to step into a world of comedy, musicals and captivating entertainment with a string of spectacular new shows announced by the Inverness venue.
The new programme boasts dozens of cultural highlights in drama, dance, music, opera and comedy, bringing a thrilling range of acclaimed talent to the Highlands.
From West End hits including Sister Act, Pride and Prejudice* (*Sort Of) and The Mousetrap to dynamic new productions like National Theatre of Scotland’s Dracula: Mina’s Reckoning – Inverness audiences will have an abundance of choice for a great night out at the theatre.
The Stamping Ground – the 2022 co-production between Eden Court and Raw Material Arts – will also make a welcome return to the venue in May, giving Inverness fans another chance to see the successful show as part of its UK tour.
The venue will also continue to be a stop on the circuit for some of the UK’s biggest stand-up acts, including Stewart Lee, Frankie Boyle, Susie McCabe, Josie Long and Tim Vine.

Families also have a lot to look forward to, with Dinosaur World Live, David Walliams’ Demon Dentist and smash-hit circus musical CIRQUE: The Greatest Show arriving at Eden Court soon.
There’s an array of dynamic new productions from Scotland’s national companies, with Scottish Ballet’s A Streetcar Named Desire, Scottish Opera’s Bizet’s Carmen and National Theatre of Scotland’s exciting new takes on Kidnapped and Dracula: Mina’s Reckoning.

The next six months feature musicals, drama, classic plays, new-writing, murder mysteries, horror, circus, opera, ballet, contemporary dance, stand-up comedy, children’s shows, talks, traditional music, orchestral music and musical tributes.
