The #DundeeRep has two more runs of 'Confessions of a Shinagawa Monkey'. I don't know whether there are any tickets left, but go and watch it if you can! 😊

The story is interestingly re-imagined (including language elements - I am saying no more 😉🤐), it has great stage design & process, and excellent actors.

Morna Young’s dad was lost at sea when she was just five, but the “Burghead quine” has become one of Scotland’s most compelling literary talents. Her adaptation of “Sunset Song” tours the country from April to June and Morna is also creating a new work about the sexism scandal - “No Ladies” at The Grill in Aberdeen - which sparked global headlines in 1973! #MornaYoung #DundeeRep #SunsetSong https://www.pressandjournal.co.uk/fp/lifestyle/6400463/morna-young-sunset-song-the-grill/
