Tonight, we open @AMothersSong_. It’s been over 5 years since @TaniAzevedo_ and I began plotting this story. I hope we’ll learn lots of new things about the show in the coming days. But for now, you only have 5 chances to catch it at @Macrobert and we’d love to see you there.

Thank you to everyone who came out to see the show on tour, to our brilliant cast & crew & team who continue to shepherd the story with care as it’s evolves and travels. Until the next stop on the Whale Road… 🐋

That joint sense of wonder & loss was such a big part of what inspired the story of ‘Islander’ 6 years ago, and it’s magic to see our small musical now travelling so far from home and resonating in different ways with new audiences. 3/4

Bottlenose dolphins every day, curious seals, & reports of a minke whale nearby. Plus a bracing dip at the Singing Sands with the shearwaters. A big welcome breath of Hebridean air, and a reminder of how vast & magnificent & under threat our oceans are. 2/4

Last week ‘Islander’ concluded its US Tour after 105 performances. While the casts were taking their final bows, I was in Scotland on the Isle of Eigg (where Rùm on the horizon could almost be Islander’s mythical mountainous floating island of Setasea). 1/4 🧵

Earth under feet and fire in the sky for tonight’s opening of ‘Sunset Song’ @DundeeRep. Happy Opening to our stellar team on & off the stage. Personally, it’s been a special treat to make a show in the building where I had some of my first childhood theatre experiences.
