Faslane

Her Majesty's Naval Base Clyde, or Faslane, situated 40 miles outside Glasgow, is home
to the UK's nuclear missile program: Trident.

With her family having worked in Faslane all her life, and with friends protesting at the
gates, Fringe First winner Jenna Watt explores what happens when the personal and
political collide.

Drawing upon interviews with individuals at the front line of the nuclear debate, Jenna
navigates her own journey through the politics, protests and peace camps in this multi
award-winning show, direct from a hugely successful run at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe.
