Returning to the Edinburgh Fringe, to the venue where it won a Herald Angel Award and built a reputation as a smash hit of modern Scottish theatre, Thunderstruck is the tragic, comic and epic tale of the greatest bagpiper that ever lived. The story of a Pitlochry bin man who rocked tradition, flew beyond the summit of his art and changed Scottish music forever. Whatever notions you have of bagpipes, leave them at the door. 'A stunning, staggering piece of modern Scottish folk theatre' ***** (BritishTheatreGuide.info). 'Elucidating, charming and rip-roaringly inspirational' ***** (TheQR.co.uk). 'Masterful' **** (BroadwayWorld.com). **** (Fest).
