About

Winter 1919. Thomas Barclay is transported back in time, to the night when he was the Signalman who sent the Edinburgh/Burntisland train onto the Tay Rail Bridge, 40 years before.

Who is responsible when accidents occur? Why is there a difference between what we feel and what we know? Why do we need somebody to blame… even if it’s ourselves?

Ticket includes:

  • A play, a pie and a pint of beer/125ml glass of house wine or a regular glass of soft drink, orange juice, filter coffee or tea.
  • A vibrant mix of themes, characters and stories.
  • Lunchtime and evening performances.
  • Easily digestible 50-min play packages.
