25 years ago there was a legendary Highlands and Islands tour of
Liz Lochhead's adaptation of Tartuffe. The tour became
legend as the broken marriages, broken noses and broken dreams of
the actors provided more drama offstage than on.
In the present day, three survivors of the tour take the play on
again. Older but definitely not wiser can they navigate the
secrets of their past to make the dress rehearsal? Will Liz
Lochhead allow them to even put it on? And at their age can they
remember any of the bloody lines?
After the success of last year, A Play, A Pie and A
Pint returns to the Traverse this autumn for a fourth season
with five world premieres by the UK's hottest playwrights. These
hugely successful events will take place at 1pm from Tuesday to
Saturday, giving you the chance to while away your lunchtime
watching a brilliant 45 minute play - with a tasty pie and
refreshing pint to top it all off.
