Originally supported by Pitlochry Festival Theatre and the Pleasance Trust as part of the Edinburgh National Partnership.
Guffy is a guttural, allegorical tale of the state of our nation. Set in a world of no hopers and lost causes. Alba is the past. Guffy is the present. The bairn is the future. They co-exist in the bottom end of Alloa. ‘If yer frae the Bottom End ye dinnae get oot!’ Following its premiere at Edinburgh Fringe Festival, Guffy is back and brings the voice of an unheard people to the stage. She vents the frustrations of her generation in an unbridled spewing. Nothing goes untouched: race, sexuality, class, social media and Alba.
For ages 16+

Guffy will take place in the upstairs area of 1051 GWR, which is only accessible via stairs. This venue is unfortunately not accessible by Wheelchair.
Why not take the opportunity to have a meal in their restaurant downstairs before or after the show?
