December 9, 2020Provost’s Community Awards 2021
December 9, 2020Victorious is a new epic piece of people’s theatre written by Julia Taudevin and created by National Theatre of Scotland and Slung Low with the people of Paisley to be performed there in September 2022.
A musical about a future we might be heading towards, the play takes place over a whole day in various locations around the city.
The show is performed outside throughout the day in a number of key locations.
We are looking for Scottish artists or artists based in Scotland to join the creative team to make this large-scale, explosive, political show with the people of Paisley.
We want to hear from the full breadth and range of the talent theatre in Scotland has. We need a team of brilliant, determined, heroic artists to make something as big and as challenging as this show.
