Whisky Kisses was a finalist in last year’s international competition to find a new Scottish Musical – Highland Quest – which was sponsored by Eden Court Theatre, the Cameron Mackintosh Foundation and The Scottish Executive.
The show received a fantastic response from the judges, audiences and critics alike and came very close to winning the competition.  This was a tremendous achievement for Right Lines Productions, the Highlands-based theatre company behind the project and with the strong support of Eden Court Theatre, the company has been actively pursuing ways of ensuring that Whisky Kisses makes it all the way to a full production.
The presentation at DNA is the next step in that process and will feature a rehearsed reading of excerpts from Whisky Kisses including several songs from the original Highland Quest final showcase, plus new material.  The presentation will also focus on a “Musical in the Making”, with contributions from the professional team involved in the project to date.  This will offer a fascinating insight into the journey a home-grown Highland musical has taken from original idea to a show on the brink of full development.
Right Lines Productions is run by Euan Martin and Dave Smith.  The company has engaged musician Jim Bryce to write the music for the show.
