ScotlandsFest: Poets Don't Drive!

Luath Press / Julie McNeillProfessional company

60 minutesHall
Screaming train rides, red-hot buses, Tartan Army, boxing ring, Botox, love. Nothing is off-limits as one woman criss-crosses borders with a showcase of the poems from her brand-new collection, Love Goes North. In this love letter to Scotland, and to herself, Julie McNeill explores the sheer joy of taking the long way, stopping at each and every watering hole and graveyard to piece together her past along the way. Tears, humour and the whole ugly miracle of human experience squeezed into a lively hour of poetic mastery.
