Inner-City Soil
Interpreting Scotland
(Wed 26 Oct: 8.30pm)
Flowing streams and mythic goddesses meet cigarettes and housing schemes in ‘inner-city soil‘, where the urban and the pagan combine. Through storytelling, contemporary music and poetry, emerging artists Raymond Wilson and Fiyin Fakunle let us into the worlds of working-class Scottish characters who find their connection to mythology, spirituality and the natural world within the everyday.
Directed by Fiona Mackinnon.

Interpreting Scotland is a series of new work commissioned for this year's Scottish International Storytelling Festival, exploring how Scotland shapes its sense of self in this period of change. Creatives within and beyond the storytelling community challenge and shape stories that matter for Scotland - past, present and future.
~~~~~~~~~~
In Scotland’s Year of Stories, the Scottish International Storytelling Festival: Keep It Lit invites everyone to the ceilidh; locally, nationally and globally. At the core of Scotland’s culture and identity is the hospitable hearth - a place of solidarity and welcome for friend and stranger alike. Round that symbolic fire, experiences and memories are shared and hope affirmed.
