Friday 3rd Oct, 7.30pm
Written and directed by Paddy Cunneen this powerful and beautifully produced short play for Scotland today features two boys, one murder and two victims. When his friend is stabbed, a young lad from a housing scheme falls in with a gang. The terrible revenge he takes at random brings disaster on himself and the family of his victim. Inspired by The Iliad and drawing on contemporary Glasgow's so-called "knife culture" Fleeto is a hard-hitting contemporary Scottish re-invention of the Greek tragic form. The performances will also feature young adults from the local community. 'Fleeto' is 55 minutes in length (with no interval) and contains very strong language. Not suitable for young people under the age of 16.
