A History of Paper

A new production of a magical musical about unbounding joy, impossible grief, a man, a woman and the little bits of paper that make up a life.
First seen at the Traverse Theatre in 2024 as part of the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, A History of Paper co-created by Oliver Emanuel (Book) and Gareth Williams (Music), won a Fringe First, Music Theatre Review Best Musical award and the Best Director at the Critics’ Awards for Theatre in Scotland (CATS) for Dundee Rep Theatre Artistic Director Andrew Panton.
Andrew returns to direct a new co-production with Pitlochry Festival Theatre starring Tony, Olivier, BAFTA and Emmy award winner Alan Cumming, and Olivier and BAFTA award winner Shirley Henderson. This pair of Scottish acting titans reunite after first playing opposite each other in Scottish Television’s Shadow of the Stone 40 years ago! More recently they appeared together in Brian Cox’s directorial film debut Glenrothan.
