Glasgow theatre-goers are set to be treated to a night of sci-fi scares next month.
A new production based on the cult film Alien 3 is coming to Websters Theatre in the west end from Thursday Ocotber 3 to Saturday October 5.
A collaboration between a Glasgow based theatre company and national horror events specialists, Alien 3: The Unfilmed Script is a play that plans to bring theatre and sci-fi fans together.
A notoriously troubled film, Alien 3 went through several scripts and directors before release. Now, Shows on a Shoestring have joined forces with Scare Scotland to bring one of the infamous lost scripts to the stage.
The play will feature an eerie original score and action-packed fight choreography as well as some familiar props and costumes, with the opportunity for fans to explore (and get photos with) some of the franchise’s iconic costumes and props after the show.
Producer Effie Scott said: "Set on a dying planet filled with religious extremists refusing to address a climate crisis, and starring a female action hero, this script couldn't feel more timely, despite being written some 30 years ago.
"We’re so excited to give sci-fi fans a new opportunity to experience the Alien universe and make some new Alien fans out of regular theatre-goers."
The performance is suitable for over 14s only due to violence and language.
Alien 3: The Unfilmed Script runs from October 3 to 5 from 7.30pm at Websters Theatre on Great Western Road.
Tickets are priced at £12 concession and £14 adults. Group bookings are available by contacting the Box Office on 0141 357 4000.
