Wallace is a thrilling new musical from award-winning playwright Rob Drummond, acclaimed rapper Dave Hook, renowned director Orla O’Loughlin and powerhouse producers Raw Material.
Forget the Braveheart clichés
This bold new production rips into Scotland’s most famous legend, asking whether William Wallace was a hero, a rebel, or simply a myth. The fearless cast go head-to-head in electrifying rap battles, blending history, humour and Hook’s original beats to deliver an unforgettable theatrical experience. With a Hip Hop score incorporating rap, folk, pop, rock and razor-sharp lyrics in a distinctly Scottish voice, Wallace reinvents the story of a national icon for a new generation.
