With any luck, this new production of a script originally penned by John Ward may help encourage the re-establishment of an artistic team at what is now a receiving house.
Ward's play was a heroic reimagining of the life and death of 17th-century Scots wanderer James MacPherson, who created his own mythology via the song he penned while awaiting execution. Kally Lloyd-Jones' production of Linda Duncan McLaughlin's adaptation was enabled by the Scottish Government-backed Year of Creative Scotland 2012's bestowment of the Scotland's Creative Place Award to St Andrews.
