About Torn From The Same Cloth / Mending Nets
Torn from the Same Cloth (7:30pm) 1hr
Whose tears soak the cloth on our backs? This is the story of a global textile industry and two nations bound by more than meets the eye. This new piece weaves traditional and historical tales from India and Scotland about power, corruption, greed and the ones who fight back. Performed by Kirsten Milliken and Neel Debdutt Paul. Directed by Peter Chand.
Mending Nets (9pm) 1hr
Palestinian poet and dancer Nada Shawa and Scottish storyteller Janis Mackay build a bridge of friendship between Scotland and Palestine, presenting the simple and radical belief that the act of telling stories from our lands - especially stories of loss, friendship and hope - can be instrumental in helping people attempt to retrieve an unravelled sense of identity.
Individual tickets £10/£8
Double-bill ticket £16/£14
