“There’s plenty of comedy here, but also a profoundly serious drama about how national and individual identities are constructed in the 21st century; and with the excellent Ken Alexander – formerly of the ByreTheatre – in the director’s chair…it’s a smart, witty, respectful and good-hearted account of Greenhorn’s play, sensitive to its powerful mix of narrative and dialogue, and full of enjoyable performances…” Joyce McMillan The Scotsman
