Author Description

'a bedrock of the Scottish theatre industry' The Guardian 'a major part of Scotland's new playwriting landscape' The Scotsman After running for fifteen years, the founding principles of A Play, a Pie and a Pint remain steadfast - a new play at lunchtime every week that lasts no more than an hour, accompanied by a pie and a pint. As well as producing thirty-three new plays per year, Òran Mór also biannually hosts its much-adored pantomimes for grown up kids - both Summer and Winter - which have become a staple of the Glasgow theatrical calendar. This first volume collects some of the most popular and critically acclaimed plays from the phenomenal back catalogue. Includes the plays: A Respectable Widow Takes to Vulgarity (Douglas Maxwell) Toy Plastic Chicken (Uma Nada-Rajah) Chic Murray: A Funny Place for A Window (Stuart Hepburn) Ida Tamson (Denise Mina) Jocky Wilson Said (Jane Livingstone and Jonathan Cairney) Do Not Press This Button (Alan Bissett)
