An Evening With... Alan Cumming
About An Evening With... Alan Cumming
Join us for an evening with Alan
Cumming, in aid of The Lyceum, hosted by beloved broadcaster, Kirsty
Wark.
Alan Cumming is a true polymath: an award-winning actor, author, photographer,
podcaster, presenter and more. With projects ranging from solo dance-theatre to
his recently Emmy-nominated turn as the host of global cultural phenomenon, The
Traitors, Alan also has four honorary doctorates, and over forty
awards for his humanitarian and philanthropic work.
From the beloved double act Victor and Barry (created with drama
school pal Forbes Masson) who were the toast of the Edinburgh Festival in the
1980s, to his multi award-winning role as the Emcee in Cabaret on
Broadway and in the West End, theatre is in Alan’s blood. He first appeared on
The Lyceum stage in 1986 as part of the repertory company, playing roles in Tartuffe,
and A Streetcar Named Desire.
In this special one-off event as part of our ‘Evening with…’ fundraising
series, we welcome Alan back to The Lyceum stage, and look forward to
an intimate and personal insight into his life and career. Prepare
your burning questions as afterward there will be a Q&A session.
VIP tickets are not only the best seats in the house, but include a
meet and greet in the Henry Irving Room after the show with a chance to
chat with Alan over a complimentary drink.
All profits go to The Royal Lyceum Theatre Company Ltd, a
charity registered in Scotland number SC010509.
