Common Tongue
(Sat 28 Sep: 7:30pm)
Some folk are happy tae listen tae thairsel speak. A cannae unnerstaun that.
This is a play aboot imperfect Scots.
Bonnie’s life has been defined by words; the richt wans, the wrang wans, aun the wans used against her. The now, Bonnie has a chance to speak aboot it. But the last time she done any public speaking wis a solo talk in Primary School. This time roon she’s no really sure whit she’s gonnae say, or even how she’s gonnae say it.
A fast-paced and quick-witted show exploring the impact of language, identity and culture in Scotland, Common Tongue follows Bonnie as she navigates her relationship with the way she speaks, coming to grips with the implications of her language, and how much she can claim it or ignore it.
Presented in association with Cumbernauld Theatre. Supported by Creative Scotland.
