Grim, harrowing but brilliant

A really powerful story expertly told. The actors all did a superb job and the dialogue was a perfect blend of poetry and grounded realism. Just really good. Nice one.

I was transported to Govan, this was so evocative. Expertly written, acted and produced. So glad we went to see this tonight.

An edge-of-your-seat, hand-wringing ride. Thought-provoking and funny. Brilliantly strong performances from the cast. I laughed with them and I cried with them. Those who are lucky enough to be unaware of this lifestyle need to know what has to be done to survive, and those who are trying to survive it need to know there's possibly a way out. The working classes are blowing the roof off the arts scene. Long may it continue!

An amazing production from start to finish, the talent of the cast made the whole experience utterly gripping. We laughed, cried and gasped aloud as we watched the story of these intertwined lives unfold, and the hard lessons learned through heartbreak, banter, loss and violence that happens within these communities. Each character bringing their own unique perspective to the tale. Can’t thank you all enough for taking us on this journey through your brilliant performances, a special mention to Liam Lambie, who was utterly outstanding through his writing and his acting being “superb” as one audience member shouted out at curtain close, and to Tam, Ross McAree, who without his story we wouldn’t have seen the ripple effect of one person change the lives of everyone - 5 stars from us.

What an amazing show this is! From start to finish the entire cast delivered a powerful and memorable performance. The story itself provoked a full range of emotions and truly draws you in. We can’t speak highly enough of the full production and would thoroughly recommend it to anyone!

We brought our two teenage children to the show in Newcastle and were blown away by a fantastic and hard hitting performance. Myself and my wife have both dealt with addiction issues in the past and were in our late teens in the late 90’s, everything in the production felt genuine and the cast delivered and dealt with all of the topics in a truly authentic manner. It’s hard to talk to your kids about gangs, drugs, violence etc mainly because they don’t listen to their parents the same way we didn’t so productions such as this are incredibly important and we said how much more young people would benefit from seeing it. Loads of fun as well you could see how much you all were enjoying yourselves and how invested you are in your art. Well done and look forward to seeing you again soon. Phil & Jen.
