Maggie's Body

1st February 2011

Storyteller Tim Porteous has written a play in Scots called 'Maggie's Body'.  Set in Prestonpans in 1826 it was first performed at the Gothenburg Tavern on St Andrew's Day last year. The play will be performed this time at the Scottish Storytelling Centre in Edinburgh following a Scots Storytelling Night with contributors from the Borders, Lothians, Fife and the North East. The play lasts about 45 minutes.
