HOME, National Theatre of Scotland launch

Yesterday, I attended one of the Home shows taking place in the east end of Glasgow. The performance was located outdoors based in a tower block. Performers included Billy Boyd, of former hobbit fame, and the entire evening coincided with 9 other performances around Scotland that similarly launched the NTS. I cannot imagine any stronger commitment to bringing theatre into the community, as an attempt to represent more inclusive aspirations. The performance was accessible and engaging given the context.
