BLACK WATCH Readies for New UK and International Tour Starting September
The National Theatre of Scotland has announced a new UK and international tour of Gregory Burke's critically acclaimed play, Black Watch. The tour will begin in September.
Hurtling from a pool room in Fife to an armoured wagon in Iraq, Black Watch is based on interviews conducted by Gregory Burke with former soldiers who served in Iraq. Viewed through the eyes of those on the ground, Black Watch reveals what it means to be part of the legendary Scottish regiment, what it means to be part of the war on terror and what it means to make the journey home again. John Tiffany's production makes powerful and inventive use of movement, music and song to create a visceral, complex and urgent piece of theatre.
The production will play the Scottish Exhibition and Conference Centre in Glasgow from September 15th to October 9th and then the Aberdeen Exhibition and Conference Centre from October 13th to the 23rd. These special presentations will precede the U.K. and international tour. The tour will be led by the original creative team and an all-new cast.

Gregory Burke recently won the Writers' Guild Award for Black Watch in the Best New Play category. BBC Scotland's documentary, Black Watch: A Soldier's Story won a BAFTA Scotland Best Documentary Award.
