Drunk Man set to music

drunk man thistle

A Drunk Man Looks at the Thistle, Hugh MacDiarmid’s Scots poem, with its infamously thrawn narrator, is set to music of huge imagination and vibrancy by Glasgow composer Bill Sweeney  in a performance by one of Scotland’s finest contemporary music ensembles, Red Note.

In this new production Edinburgh's Traverse Theatre promises audiences a night of humour, inebriation, beauty, politically charged comment and wild musical and literary invention.
