Hi Scott

Mr Ewing has indicated that he would like to attend the play on Monday 15th February at Rutherglen Town Hall. I will confirm this in his diary. Would it be possible to arrange 4 tickets?

Thanks

Chris

"The Scottish Government is totally committed to tackling sectarian bigotry regardless of how it manifests itself, and I wish the tour continuing success.  I would like to thank the artistic director, Scott Kyle, and all those involved in the production for their important contribution to overcoming sectarianism.  By working together we can create a One Scotland of many cultures in which the blight of sectarian bigotry is banished once and for all."

"I would like to congratulate NLP Theatre Company on taking the initiative to challenge sectarianism by performing this great play. I am sure that the performances will make a real impact on every audience and will help challenge the sectarian problems still facing Scotland today. Given recent incidents, it is important to continue the battle to isolate those with out of date and dangerous attitudes. NLP Theatre will help build this movement through this production."

 
Best wishes

Anti-sectarian workshops
    Thursday - 07 - January - 2010 - 04:27 PM - Posted by Scott Kyle ()

 

NLP Theatre Company's interactive anti-sectarian drama workshops focus on raising awareness of the issues surrounding sectarianism within Scottish society.

Thumbnail image for Thumbnail image for Thumbnail image for Thumbnail image for Thumbnail image for Thumbnail image for Thumbnail image for Thumbnail image for Thumbnail image for Thumbnail image for Thumbnail image for tugofwar.jpgThe workshops follow a performance of Des Dillon's anti-sectarian play "Singin` I`m No a Billy He`s a Tim" and explore opinions and perspectives of bigotry, sectarianism and ethnic identity in Scotland.

Workshop leaders engage participants in discussions about the play, looking at the characters (Harry, Billy &,Tim), and considering how Billy & Tim have picked up their personal attitudes, views and beliefs through family and society. 

The participants get the chance to play Billy & Tim and perform on stage with profesional actors. 

Our drama workshops draw out personal attitudes, views and experiences while encouraging participants to challenge sectarianism in their own lives and in wider society.

Our workshops are available to schools, youth groups and organisations.
