Aberdeen Performing Arts is a charitable trust founded in 2004 to take over the running and management of His Majesty's Theatre and Music Hall. In 2008, the company's portfolio grew with the acquisition of The Lemon Tree, which perfectly complemented the size and style of the venues already being managed.

 

APA has packed a lot into its brief history and strives to grow and develop to bring the people of the North East of Scotland and beyond the best live entertainment.

 

In 2008, APA spread its wings and produced its first major solo production in Sunset Song, which was received with critical acclaim. Sunset Song was performed at His Majesty's Theatre before being taken on tour to Inverness, Glasgow, Edinburgh and Perth and was seen by an audience of over 25,500 people in total. This success was continued with the staging of the The Silver Darlings in 2009 and our Creative Learning department producing several shows each year, offering many opportunties to children and adults alike.

 

APA's vision is to reach for the stars in everything we do. Through staging and producing a wide and diverse range of work we aim to touch emotions, lift the spirits and expand the minds of both residents and visitors to the North East of Scotland.
