There's a war on and for Glasgow, like the rest of Britain, that means air raids, black-outs, food rationing, barrage balloons and the pain of parting as husbands and fathers go off to fight.

For the McSorleys and their neighbours in the East End tenements its a case of making the best of what life has to offer.

This is their laugh-a-line story capturing all the wit and spirit of city life during the dark days of the forties when the grit and humour of Glaswegians overcame all adversities. James Barclay has created a marvellous range of characters which evoke a wonderful nostalgic picture of the Glasgow we used to know.

Daisies is a straightforward, heart-on-sleeve double monologue for a young couple who become parents of a much-loved and long-awaited baby daughter, Daisy, only to face the horror of losing her in a sudden cot death; the play achieves a real tear-jerking power without ever sliding into soap-opera sentimentality.

Set in a Scotland "lost in the mists of time", this new version of the familiar story uses elements of ancient Celtic folklore and the supernatural as its main themes. Calluna, Queen of the Faeries, finds a way to rid the land forever from the evil influences of Queen Thron and her Hobgoblins. Her son, prince Alban, must marry a Mortal Bride! The wisest of the Faerie Godmothers, Dalriada, sets out from the Faerie Glen to find a suitable candidate, eventually choosing Cinderella, the kind-hearted daughter of the daft Laird of Clartystanes Castle. Queen Thron, learning of this, worms her way into the Laird's affections and marries him. Unwittingly getting caught up in her evil machinations are her silly and somewhat "photogenically challenged" daughters. When Calluna announces "The Great Gathering", where Alban will choose his bride, Thron does everything in her power to ensure her daughters are well to the fore!

Narrated and told in "flashback" by Buttons, "The Legend of Cinderella" is an affectionate variation on the classic Panto tale beloved of generations of theatregoers

Jolly Good Fun takes place in an English Country Garden in the 1920's. The cast were aged between eight and seventeen and takes a light hearted look at the upstairs/downstairs characters. The young girls' chatter revolves around Rupert the dsahing young of quite a few dreams. In the meantime our hero Harry is trying to find a way to meet his grilfriend who works as a maid at the house. Add a fortune telleing session and a Murder Mystery Evening to the pot and you can be sure of some 'Jolly Good Fun'

Dominick, having packed his wife off on retreat to an obscure saint's shrine, is poised to enjoy an adulterous affair with sexy Grace. Grace arrives, followed by Dominick's wife, followed by Grace's husband - a formidable Aer Lingus pilot. Eventually the evening is resolved amicably although not quite how Dominick intended!

“Nunsense” is a Musical Comedy by Dan Goggin who says that although it may be hard to believe after you’ve seen the show, each of the Little Sisters of Hoboken is based on a real life nun! Come along and join our audience to watch them display their divine talents in a zany benefit revue; an attempt to raise money for their fallen sisters….unfortunate victims of a cooking accident! Mother Superior (Betty Gibson) is aided by her order of eccentric and endearing nuns. Sister Mary Hubert (Carolyn Cheape) Mistress of Novices, second in command and always competing with Mother Superior. Sister Robert Anne (Joanna Fitzgerald), a streetwise tough character from Brooklyn, she is a constant source of aggravation for Mother Superior. Sister Mary Amnesia (Muriel Gordon) who lost her memory after a crucifix fell on her head, and last but not least Sister Mary Leo (Kim Brymer) the novice, who entered the convent with the firm desire to become the first nun ballerina! Linda Dey, Lynne Easton and Siobhan Fagan, collectively make up the surviving members of the 'Mount St Helen's School Choir'

Betsy Whyte was born into a traveller family in 1919 and brought up in the age old tradition of the 'mist people' - constantly moving around the country and settling down in one place only during the winter. It was while the family were 'housed up' at this time of the year that she received her education, attending a number of village schools before winning a scholarship to Brechin High School, where she was the only traveller child. She gave up the traveller life when she married in 1939 and started writing about her childhood in the 1970s.

The Yellow On The Broom is the first part of her autobiography. Not only is it a fascinating insight into the life and customs of traveller people in the 1920s and 30s, it is also a thought proving account of human strength and weakness, courage and cowardice, understanding and prejudice by a sensitive and entertaining writer.

Too Much Punch for Judy tells the true story of an incident which happened on May 20th 1983.

Using only the words of those involved or closely affected, the play explores the problems surrounding the death of Joanna when her sister was at the wheel in a drink-drive incident. The play looks at the sisters relationship with each other and their mother. It then concentrates on the actual crash and immediate aftermath, mainly through the eyes of one the first witnesses at the scene. PC Chris Caten, in real life a good friend of the family, then has to break news of Joanna's death to her mother and Judy in turn, before the mother and daughter are left to deal with their loss.

Shakey Threwer invites the audience to take a trip back with him to the early seventies to the era of his youth, when he and his 14 year old friends tried to form a glam rock band. Poor Shakey's life (like any other 14-year-olds) doesn't quite go to plan.

The play is linked together with music of the time.
