A highly charged and compelling dance-theatre piece, A Wee Home From Home explores the dizzying emotions and memories that one man's homecoming can provoke. Told with affection and wandering through other familiar territory that would rather be forgotten, the show is a roller coaster ride down an unpredictable memory lane. Frank McConnell's inspired and well-observed choreography perfectly partners the caustic and heart breaking observations contained in Michael Marra's exceptional live music. Powerful, telling and humorous, this is one homecoming not to be missed!

"what really scores is the bantering, almost vaudevillian between McConnell and Marr. Amazingly talented and both men true to form" - The Herald.

Here's what the Programming Panel said:

The panel were drawn to the nostalgic and culturally relevant themes of this production, it is a Scottish piece but with universal resonance. Combining music, theatre and dance from two of Scotland's most celebrated artists the panel feel it is important that work embodying Scotland in this manner should be present in the showcase.
