​​​
Down to earth soprano Nicola Mills brings her popular opera for the people to the Spot On Festival.  This diva with a difference asks the audience to choose their programme from her song menu, which is full of popular opera, classical songs and musicals for an uplifting and touching night to
remember.

Music and dance lovers can enjoy The Swan of Salen, a unique blend of Tchaikovsky's iconic Swan Lake music and traditional Gaelic melodies, played live by The Willow Trio, with enchanting ballet footage projected behind the harpists as they perform.

Bringing the festival to a close, the popular Swing Commanders present their take on well-crafted songs from the thirties to the fifties, from American songbook classics to western swing and novelty songs; overlaying these with lush vocal harmonies and hot solos.

Elsewhere in the festival programme there’s plenty for young audiences and families, with Ten in the Bed, celebrating the power of imaginary play; Gemma Bond, the Pirate Princess searching for a safe space to land in a children’s outdoor pole-theatre show, and Splat! a funny show about art and creativity.  Families can step inside the library at the Edge of the World; meet a giant tortoise and then dance their socks off at MiniFest, a gig created especially for children.
