Theatre's doing the heavy lifting this week, with the Macphail Centre in Ullapool hosting two very different shows in the space of a few days. Add an inclusive climbing session in Inverness and a gig at An Seòmar, and there's a decent spread across stage, wall and venue if you're willing to drive a bit. Not a bumper week, but a well-rounded one.

A Midsummer Night's Dream, Folksy Theatre
TheatreThe Macphail Centre, Ullapool
Shakespeare's daftest comedy given the Folksy Theatre treatment - a good bet if you want live theatre without wading through heavy verse. The Macphail's an easy, friendly room for it.
Inclusive Climbing Event
OutdoorsLedge Climbing Wall, Inverness
A session at Ledge built to make climbing genuinely open to everyone, whatever your experience or ability. Worth going along even just to see how welcoming the sport can be.
The Tailor of Inverness
TheatreThe Macphail Centre, Ullapool
A one-man show that's built a real reputation for turning a personal, local story into something funny and sharp. Good choice for anyone who thinks theatre has to be stuffy.
Cala at An Seòmar
MusicAn Seomar
An Seòmar's small enough that a gig here feels like you're in on something before everyone else. Worth catching Cala in a room this size and this close.
