Highlights have got to be our Love Music Season featuring our own Classic Music Live! Falkirk, The Scottish Chamber Orchestra’s Autumn Concert and an evening with musical legends Phil Cunningham and Aly Bain.

We’re also welcoming back the National Theatre of Scotland on their Autumn tour with Calum’s Road - a touching story of adversity set in an island community.

And Cinema at FTH just gets better. As well as our regular screenings our lovely Film Programmer Alison has a silver screen season of special film events that are bound to sell out fast.

“I never knew I could like a woman so much. I’m ashamed to say she made me wet myself” Graham Norton

Calum’s Road Adapted by David Harrower from the novel by Roger Hutchinson

Monday 17th October We’re delighted to welcome the National Theatre of Scotland and for the first time Communicado Theatre in this remarkable true story of one man’s single-minded determination to challenge the powers-that-be.

Directed by the acclaimed Gerry Mulgrew and based on Roger Hutchinson’s novel, Calum’s Road portrays a dying way of life in Northern Raasay.

Calum MacLeod, having battled the inaction of authorities on Raasay for years, sets off alone with a pick, a shovel and a wheelbarrow to build a road that will connect up the island.

His daughter has been forced to board at secondary school on Skye and now Calum’s not having it any more. He wants to turn the tide of neglect and indifference and keep his family - and community - together.

His unpaid labour of love was to dominate the last 20 years of Calum’s life and leave behind a legacy – both practical and poetic - carved into the landscape he loved.

A poignant and moving new play from the finest theatre companies in Scotland.
