A GUID few bunnets in the audience – it being the weather for staunch woolly headgear – nodded along in contented approval as Gerda Stevenson rolled out the Scots language in the narrative with engaging gusto and the live band brought some wittily characterful traditional music into this children's tale of scary moments and happy endings.
If the adult bunnets appreciated the proselytising motives (and skills) behind the writing of James Roberston and the music by James Ross, the bouncing toories of various youngsters – and the way kids piled on-stage for a post-performance singalong – suggested that The Boy and the Bunnet had more than enough charm to compensate for a rather basic staging.
