The latest new production at A Play, A Pie and a Pint this 2025 autumn season is The Glasgow Poisoner by Tom Cooper and Jen McGregor. This brand-new musical is based on the true story of Glaswegian socialite Madeleine Smith who was accused of murdering her lover in 1857. The Glasgow Poisoner: A New Musical is A Play, A Pie and A Pint production, co-presented with OneRen and The Gaiety Theatre, Ayr. Read my review of this lively new true crime musical below.
