“a superb piece of storytelling.”

★★★★ Thom Dibdin, The Scotsman

Doors open at 11:15

Whenever Katy eats an apple, she’s instantly reminded of her Grandad, an extraordinary man who grew 24 varieties of apple from an old piece of wasteland (the 24th tree being extra special). In remembering her childhood and apple loving Grandad, Katy realises what she needs to do to continue the orchard’s legacy.

Featuring storytelling, music and Scot’s ballads, the production brings to life Scotland’s rich orchard heritage and celebrates diversity, home grown food and the joy of harvest.

Please book one ticket per person. Under 14s must be accompanied by an adult within the museum. There will be a mix of unreserved bench and floor seating, where families are encouraged to sit on the floor to be closer to the action. Apples will be given out to audience members to taste. This event is a partnership event between V&A Dundee and Festival of the Future 2024, University of Dundee.

Location: V&A Dundee, 1 Riverside Esplanade Dundee DD1 4EZ
