QMU Teams up with Hearts FC to Revive Historic Plays at Tynecastle
We formed a unique collaboration with an award-winning theatre company to co-produce two ambitious plays for Heart of Midlothian Football Club’s 150th anniversary celebrations.
The hugely popular and critically acclaimed shows, A War of Two Halves, and Sweet FA, were revived in collaboration with our BA (Hons) Acting & Performance and BA (Hons) Costume Design and Construction students.
Across November 2024, the shows were performed at the renowned home of Hearts FC, Tynecastle Park. The revivals received several five-star reviews, and the students in Sweet FA also had the incredible opportunity to perform at half time of the Women’s Premier League Capital Cup game on 17th November of that year.
Heart of Midlothian FC has welcomed productions at Tynecastle Park since 2018 and recognises their vital contribution to the heritage and cultural understanding of the club and its history.
