Missed out on the Edinburgh Fringe? For one night only on Wednesday 25 September, the Arts Depot are giving you the chance to catch Morag, You're a Long Time Deid, now touring the UK, fresh from Edinburgh's Zoo venues.
MORAG is for everyone who feels like they might not fit in - as performers Claire Love Wilson and Sally Zori reimagine a life for ancestors past, with unique musical experimentation and sound looping, a little ceilidh and a little club dancing, all centred around a piano with a story to tell.
When Canadian Sam receives a piano and a mysterious letter filled with Scottish ballads from across the pond in Scotland, she begins to unfold the life of the grandmother she never met - Morag - whose death left a silence in the family.
Imagining an unexplored Queer romance with parallels to her own life, onstage Claire and Sally deconstruct traditional Scottish Ballads and folk music to embrace queerness, difference and those who don't 'fit' the traditions - with a little help from the audience.
For any Scots in London, for anyone who has ever felt like they didn't fit in, for anyone who loves a good tune and a dance, Morag, You're a Long Time Deid isa one-off ceilidh play for 2024 with songs that'll be stuck in your head all evening - come along, have a boogie and enjoy.
Morag, You're a Long Time Deid is at The Arts Depot, Wednesday 25 September and The Tobacco Factory, Bristol Friday 27 & Saturday 28 September.
