Rapture Theatre finds winning recipe for lunchtime theatre

Last year was not a good one for Rapture Theatre, the Glasgow-based Scottish touring company founded back in 2000 by artistic director Michael Emans, and his partner and co-artistic-director Lyn McAndrew. After the relative security of three years as one of Creative Scotland’s regularly funded organisations, or RFO’s, Rapture was one of the touring companies brusquely informed, back in January 2018, that their hard-won RFO status was being ended, and that after a year of transitional support they would be expected to switch their funding applications to a new Creative Scotland touring fund.
