we really appreciate your support
We are extremely grateful to those of you who have continued to support our work by not requesting ticket refunds.
Our funders have been supportive of our ambition to deliver an alternative programme during this difficult and lonely time of social-distancing.
As a charity, our focus is on your well-being and the welfare of your community, as far as possible our online events and activities will be free to everyone.
The livelihoods of artists will be jeopardised due to this cruel virus, as a publicly funded charity we think it is vital that we continue to support artists through our live online programme.
However, to continue our work at a time when box office income has ceased will be extremely challenging. If you are able to support us with a kind donation, we and the artists we support, will be greatly appreciative.

SMILE
Dundee Rep
Jim McLean might never be called one of Scottish football’s best-loved characters, but he will always be described as one of the most respected. While boss of Dundee United, McLean did something that no-one thought possible, and turned a provincial football club into a genuine, European force, though not without cost.
Smile, a new piece based on the life of this legendary football icon, reveals for the first time the complexities and contradictions, the highs and lows, and the triumphs and regrets of this totally unique individual.
Penned by theatre and television writer Philip Differ (Only an Excuse?) and directed by Sally Reid, this funny, moving and surprisingly honest new play will celebrate the memories of a difficult yet inspirational man, ultimately revealing a Jim McLean you never knew:
A Jim McLean that will make you smile.
