Stuff by Sylvia Dow

By

We are honoured and delighted to be chosen as a venue on the professional touring production of local Bo’ness playwright Sylvia Dow. This world premiere follows on from the success of the collaboration on Threads (2015), between award-winning director Muriel Romanes (The List, The Carousel, The Deliverance – Stellar Quines) and acclaimed writer Sylvia Dow (Thrawn Craws, Village Pub Theatre).

Please come and join us for what is sure to be a fine piece of home-grown Scottish theatre.

We are what we build around us

STUFF is about the hoarding of memories, emotions and things. Today the Council is coming to clear Magda’s house. She must find a way to deal with the constant shifting of stuff in her house and her head, as she revisits the past and struggles with the present to find a way to face the future. Told with humour and tenderness this will resonate in its view of our attachment to things, and our need for attachment to each other.

“Dow’s construction evokes the power behind a shared history as the ties that bind are stronger still.” The Herald on Threads, FOUR stars

CAST: Carol Ann Crawford, Romana Abercromby, Pauline Lockhart, Rosemary Nairne

BYT Production and Showcase – 12th Oct 2018

By

The Drama Club notices that their biggest rivals, the Cheerleaders, are acting unusual. They’re beginning to smell, and they seem to have an odd taste for human flesh… yup, they’ve turned into zombies. With the big Homecoming game approaching, Head Zombie-Cheerleader Peaches organizes her undead followers to plan a feast on the rest of the school. It’s up to the Drama Geeks to use their gift for dramatic flair to slay their rivals. Can a ragtag band of over-dramatic misfits defeat the zombies — and save the world — before it’s too late?

Come and join the Barony Youth Theatre in this fun production of Kathryn Walat’s Drama Geeks versus Zombie Cheerleaders this October.

BYT will follow this performance with a selection of scenes and performances to showcase their talents. 

Directed by BYT Youth Theatre Leader Amy Grieve.

Tickets now on sale through the Barony Box Office.

Come and join them as they share memories, tell jokes, talk about their families, look to the future and sing a few songs.

So please come along to support and remember ‘The Men of the Old Brigade’ which will presented on the 9th & 10th November 2018.
