Bloody Mary's
Set in 1823, an Edinburgh riddled with greed and decay, Mary McKinnon is the queen of the night. Her brothel, Bloody Mary’s, is successful, her reputation untouched... Until one night of violence changes it all. When gentlemen turn ungentlemanly and demand more than Mary is willing to give, tragedy creeps under the red curtain and blood becomes the new currency. Come join us for a night of song and dance where the women from Edinburgh's past reclaim their voices.
Collateral Damage
'You can’t force someone to open up, can you?' In the aftermath of tragedy, a mother drowns her sorrows, one daughter lashes out at the world, while another soldiers on through the storm. The Laing family have been through thick and thin together but now lead separate lives. In the wake of Alex Laing’s release from prison, can they mend the rift between them, or have some wounds been cut too deep? Collateral Damage is a new-writing drama, tackling themes of generational trauma, mental health and recovery, through the lens of working class and queer Scottish women.
Halfway Home
Halfway Home follows the rippling effects of addiction and confronting mistakes of a past life. Davie is just out of prison and cooped up with his policeman-hopeful brother, Freddie. Caught in the middle is Laura, an overworked nurse in an underfunded NHS, who finds herself at wits end with both of them. Perspectives collide on treatment and attitudes, in the backdrop of austerity-hit Scotland, providing a bold, relatable story of a broken family trying to mend themselves.
