  • From The Stables Theatre – After Miss Julie

    From The Stables Theatre – After Miss Julie
    Jan 11 2025

    It's election night 1945 and the working class is about to elect a new Labour government and herald a seismic change in British society that will alter the old order for good. Meanwhile in the bowels of a large country house, beautiful privileged Julie, daughter of an aristocrat, is playing a dangerous seductive game with John, his lordship's chauffeur.

    So begins Patrick Marber's brilliant update and adaptation of August Strindberg's 19th century classic Miss Julie. What follows is a night of brutal psychological cat and mouse, explored through Marber's typically searing dialogue. Themes of class, sex and money are dynamically explored and build over one fateful night to an explosive climax.

    This is an unmissable opportunity to see a great play reinterpreted for our times by an equally great contemporary playwright with a wonderful trio of Stables actors ready to bring it dramatically to life.

  • The Frustrated Authors

    The Frustrated Authors
    Dec 5 2024
    Is an interest in writing a genetic thing? Does the ability to write get passed down in your DNA? That's what uncle and nephew Stuart and Richard Baillie set out to explore. Stuart's dad Peter (that's Richard's grandfather) was an author with ten novels and countless short stories published in the 1950s and Peter's sons and now one of his grandchildren have had aspirations to write the great British novel and follow in Peter's footsteps. But none of them ever have - can we get to the root of the problem? What's stopping them?

  • People and Landmarks of the UK - Mary Slessor

    People and Landmarks of the UK - Mary Slessor
    Nov 27 2024
    Mary Slessor was one of the first women to be commemorated in the Hall of Scottish Heroes half way up the Wallace Monument near Stirling. So who was she? What had she done to earn her place among such exalted company? Her story is a fascinating one; from Dundonian Mill Girl to missionary in remotest Africa and then becoming the first female magistrate in the British Empire. Mary Slessor certainly earned her place among the greats of Scotland.
