Synopsis: | On a remote and distant Scottish island, amateur theatre company the Loch Parry Players are rehearsing a stage version of The Wicker Man. However, their leading man has gone missing in mysterious circumstances', so they've hired an actor - who plays a cop on the telly to come over from the mainland and step in at the last minute. So far so good, but what they haven't told him is that there's just 24 hours before opening night. Not only that, they've also failed to mention that he'll have to learn a host of song and dance routines, deal with amazingly bad acting from the rest of the oversexed, under-the-influence cast, criminal costumes and sets that can kill. Worst of all, everyone else in the show seems to think that... it's for real. Following this so far? No? Well don't worry. All you need to know is that this new show from the National Theatre of Scotland is great fun and the perfect antidote to the gloomy nights of February and March. Oh and that it contains some rude bits! | |||||
