Theatre - The Bench (Hawick)

A new play by award-winning Scottish writer Keir McAllister. Joe is in crisis, his life a swirling scribble of obligations. For five minutes a day he finds a little peace alone on The Bench. Sandy is mourning the loss of his Maggie. The Bench is his memorial to her memory. So begins an epic conflict. A conflict that will change them both. A comedy about safe spaces and the people that fill them... Waiting for Godot meets Still Game.“McAllister's script twists elegantly” ****The List“McAllister’s writing is sharp [and] does a brilliant job of subverting any expectations” **** The ScotsmanDate:
