The production charts the unique history of Celtic Football Club through the eyes of an Irish immigrant family in living in Glasgow.
"It takes us through all the generations, highlights the emotions that come with so many things and proves that we are much bigger than a football club. An absolutely astonishing show.”
Starring the likes of Martin Quinn, David Mackay and Kathleen McDermott, the large-scale theatre production - which charts the unique history of Celtic Football Club through the eyes of an Irish immigrant family in living in Glasgow - was also a smash hit with fans, who took to their feet to give the cast an emotional standing ovation.
The Celtic Story, produced by Regular Music and Bublico in partnership with Celtic FC, was first performed at The Pavilion Theatre by Wildcat Theatre Company in 1988 and was the very first play of its kind about a football club. This latest - and long overdue - revival, adapted and directed by Martin McCormack with Martin McCardie executive producing, has been updated to reflect the changing times and evolving history of the Club while still capturing the unwavering passion and commitment of the fans.
