Mairi's adventures with Scotland's most famous song.
Delivered with her trademark wit and unparalleled musical ability, this funny and heartfelt show resonates with universal truths. As we learn about the song and its history, we journey with Mairi as she negotiates the politics of childhood friendships; the challenges of romantic relationships and the highs and lows of success and failure.
Blending storytelling, animation and movement with music composed by David Gray and Mairi Campbell this five-star show brings Scotland's most famous song to life.
Join us at the Macphail in starting the new year by takking a cup o’ kindness together in this gentle and musical journey.
Co-devised and directed by Kath Burlinson. Presented by Greengold Projects and Authentic Artist Collective.
