What's with the early morning performances of Lovesong? Can't we have a 7.30 p.m for all of them?

A wonderful production for a truly wonderful play.not one actor could be faulted, and the songs were a wonderful reminder for me of the days of my youth when I have that fire of enthusism to change the world in my belly. alas time has taken its toll on me and while I still feel pasionately about the blight of poverty that so many suffer from, that fire is sadly now an ember. I first saw the play in the Michell theatre about 30 years ago, and the impact it had on me then was equaled by this new production. So many memories of my own childhood upbringing came flooding back to me to the point that I cried real tears for a time that I had almost forgotten, almost, but through this new play these injustices are now once again to the forefront of my thinking. So so pleased I got to see this play again.

“The opening was really good when they stepped out of the tableaux to say their name in court” “The game show idea was clever. The gold jacket worked well” “Brought up some good points on sectarianism – excellent!” “The Neds accent was really good” “Relatable characters and language helped to make Scarffed for Life a very powerful piece of drama” “It was good. I liked the comedy and slow motion part where the Celtic fan broke the pressure washer. Facial expressions were funny” “Even when the Ned wasn’t talking she stayed in character. She kept her swagger throughout”

This production really helped show our Higher and Int 2 students that a strong plot and interesting characters are more important than special effects or over elaborate sets. They saw how you can put an important point across in an entertaining way. They were delighted to see actors, many of whom were not much older than them, using drama conventions and voice and movement techniques we explore in class. This was an extremely useful experience which has given our certificate drama students the confidence to create and present more interesting pieces simply but very effectively. Thank you

Hello, I am working down south next week and am therefore unable to attend any of the performance of The Ragged Trousered Philanthropist. Are there any plans for the production to be performed elsewhere? Many thanks, Ellen

"It was quality" "You could identify with the characters" "WE liked the humour, because although the point of the drama was serious, the humour helped get the message across" We didn't realise the extent some people would go to ( blue powerwasher). S5/6 Drama pupils, Drumchapel High.

Hi Pippa, It very much depends which seat. Some are restricted because they are on one side of the auditorium (e.g. the dress circle slips), in these seats you would find it harder to see the very back corner of the stage closest to you. Some are restricted due to pillars. If you phone the box office on 0141 429 0022 they'll be able to talk you through the specifics with each seat.

I went to see Men Should Weep last Weep last week and I thought it was well acted by every single actor on the stage. My fathers photograph definately just made the play, the icing on the cake! He would have loved it xx

Was at last night’s opening and it was stunning. The accuracy and sense of authenticity on time and placed was totally convincing. I’m sometimes a critic of the lack of authenticity and mawkish romanticism when it comes to dramatic presentations of the Scottish working class in poverty – but the director and cast of production did a powerful script proud. I saw some of the cast in the foyer afterwards and was struck by the youthfulness of many in a team that delivered a mature – and sometimes powerful and uncomfortable – depiction of raw poverty. Great night out for me and my guest, and I'm proud that The Citz has been aprt of this.

As a teacher at St Roch's I thought the drama was fantastic. It was an ideal length and touched on issues important and relevant to our young people with humour and sensitivity.

Hi Lauren, the workshop was planned for a Saturday so that it would be accessible to most families. That's unfortunate your neice has school that day, but I'm afraid they will only be on 17 December.

Hi there, I would love to take my niece to the Hansel and Gretel Family Workshop and then the performance but as she 8 years old, she has school that day. Would there be any evening family workshops prior to the evening performance? Thanks, Lauren
