Saicrets? Aye. We hae saicrets. Leadhills, August 1803. Dorothy Wordsworth seeks shelter in a humble lodging house and discovers something no outsider was ever meant to see. Accompanying her famous brother on a bracing tour of Scotland, she's eager to collect blood-curdling myths, legends and curiosities. The poisonous Grey Glen, where animals run mad and miners convulse, fascinates her as much as the progressive library they've travelled so far to visit. But as her landlady rants and the curfew bell tolls, Dorothy realises things beyond imagination are unburying themselves. If she listens closely, this place will give up its dark secrets. From Martin Travers, the award-winning writer of Scarfed for Life and The Kids are Alt Right, comes the magical and mysterious Secret Wrapped in Lead, an unmissable piece of Scots language theatre. This edition was published to coincide with the Braw Clan tour in July 2023.

What money?! This ends when you end. This experiment is about the survival of the fittest. Nothing more – nothing less. Imprisoned in an abandoned warehouse, a desperate group of failing actors are trapped in a dark experiment. After months of endlessly rehearsing George Bernard Shaw's Pygmalion with no director to guide them, some of the ensemble have disappeared leaving the others paranoid and subservient. Sleep-deprived and half-starved, their fragile social bonds shatter and implode as a stranger breaks in and incites them to rebel. This new dystopian thriller about a group of aspiring actors trapped in a dark social experiment is a collaboration from writers Martin Travers and Chloe Wyper. This edition was published to coincide with the run presented by the Citizens Theatre's WAC Ensemble in April 2022.

A team. A team of wit? A team of players. A bunch of mates coming the gither to huv a kick aboot. Wits new? Garry's turned 50 but doesn't feel like celebrating. Exhausted from years spent wrapped in regret, he begins to relive 'the glory days', trying to understand his mistakes, answer questions and right some wrongs in a bid to make peace with his past and find renewed purpose. Inspired by true stories, Eilidh Loan's Moorcroft follows a group of young lads in search of an escape from their working class lives. But can playing football save them from the challenges they face and make them the men they want to be? With true friendship and the tenacity of working class people at its heart, Moorcroft explores male mental health in Scotland and asks 'What is a real man?' After a sell-out and critically acclaimed run at the Tron Theatre in 2022, Moorcroft returned for a Scottish tour. This edition was published to coincide with the Tron Theatre run in July 2023 and subsequent National Theatre of Scotland tour in October 2023.

What would I do if I met him? I'd prob'ly kiss his feet. I'd prob'ly kiss his big banana feet. If you don't know who Billy Connolly is, ask the people of Scotland. And if you want to know about the people of Scotland, ask them about Billy Connolly. Over the course of four years, Gary and a team of story gatherers went all over the country with their dictaphones speaking to people about the Big Yin. Many of them were experts, many his biggest fans, many delighted to recount the time they met, if only for a brief moment, for many he is the greatest of all time. But no matter what they thought, no one was short of things to say about him. Gary then took this huge collection of moving and hilarious tales and turned them into Dear Billy, a joyous piece of theatre celebrating the Big Yin and what he means to us. The production was written and performed by Gary McNair and directed by Joe Douglas. National Theatre of Scotland originally toured the production around Scotland in 2023. This edition was published to coincide with the second National Theatre of Scotland tour and subsequent run at Edinburgh Fringe Festival from May-August 2024.

The Scots refer to thistles and other stinging plants as “jaggy nettles:” things we can’t help but step on or brush up against sometimes, even when we’re watching where we’re going. Fay (Hawson) Copland has had her fair share of stings over the years, but the love of her family has acted as a soothing balm that always got her through. A sequel to Skint Knees – Reflections on a Scottish Childhood, which focused (as its name implies) on the author’s early years in Scotland, Jaggy Nettles – An Immigrant’s Memoir tells the rest of her story, beginning with young Fay and her family preparing to immigrate to Canada. From there, it follows her life’s journey, growing up as a new Canadian, getting an education, building a satisfying career, and eventually starting a Canadian family of her own – one that has grown to include two children, two in-law children and four grandchildren.
