Watching

IT’S OPENING NIGHT!

After months of hard work – especially in the last few days, when we’ve been in the Botanics for hours every day – Watching finally opens tonight and we couldn’t be more excited!

We had our public dress rehearsal last night and everything went pretty much according to plan, so we can’t wait to use the energy drawn from the audience to give the rest of the run that little bit of extra sparkle.

We were even featured on BBC Radio Scotland’s Culture Show yesterday afternoon, which was a real honour and hopefully has done wonders for the publicity of the show. You can listen to it on iPlayer HERE (skip to 1:23:40 for interviews and snippets of music!).

We’re all so proud of the commitment of all the cast (especially Primary 7 of Leith Walk primary School) and crew and can’t wait to share our opera with you. Toi toi toi to all involved!
