DOGSTAR THEATRE – JACOBITE COUNTRY - a new comedy with live music by Henry Adam
“…a dramatist full of skill and courage, and that deep sense of dramatic structure that some writers struggle a whole lifetime to learn.”The Scotsman on Henry Adam
Jacobite Country is an alternative Highlands – still the same beautiful scenery, but the locals tend to live in council houses, drive their clapped out cars very fast and drink in bars with Confederate flags on the wall. In that respect it’s quite like the real Highlands. An ensemble piece for actor-musicians performed in a direct, irreverent style, Jacobite Country will challenge perceptions of mental illness and poverty while making people laugh.
Start time 8:00pm, tickets to be confirmed.
Friday 29th October
