Synopsis: | A hilarious play written in the Scottish vernacular, built around the clash between generations and moving times, farming communities and the big city. How would the new girlfriend be accepted by the people of this tiny village and her great ideas of fashion and beauty. It has to be seen to be believed!

Synopsis: | Stirling Golf Cub is hosting the 'Golfing Genius Trophy'. Over the years, the annual event has become fiercely competitive and since this year is the 500th anniversary of Golf (CLUBBIS and BALLIS) in Stirling itself, their team is determined to get their hands on the trophy. With a helping hand from Robert McColl, a talented bow, golf club and ball maker from the 15 century, he somewhat unprofessionally helps the 'game' along. This is a comedy about golf and golfing people, but fun for the uninitiated. Watch as this astonishing event unfolds. | |||||

Notes: | - | |||||
Synopsis: | The play initially starts with modern day William and Marion Wallace from Springburn, in Glasgow. Through dream situations Marion and William go back to the days of 'Wallace', his life, and his people. The Scots vernacular (modern Glasgow and Auld Scots) compliment other beautifully. Using Blind Harry's poetry, the story of Wallace is told in an amusing and highly entertaining way. Fact and legend, comedy and tragedy, educating but also manages to tug at the heart strings on the way. The play is written by a true Scot ,but with mixed audiences of English, American and French, the premiere performances of Oor wallace were loved just as much as the Scots. | |||||
