A thought provoking production exploring Scotland’s identity, past and present using film, narration, music and dance.
Where would you get a Samba band, a Gaelic choir, breakdancers with a Bhangra soundtrack, musicians from Ghana, Chinese dance, contemporary dance with a Scottish/African fusion and an Irish ceilidh band together with Polish, Yiddish and Italian music? … at the Edinburgh International Conference Centre as part of the St Andrew’s Day celebrations.
Scripted by Raymond Raszkowski Ross and Directed by Tony Cownie, our scotland is a multi-media experience incorporating film, dance, poetry and song, narrated by James MacPherson (Taggart) and Diana Milford (STV Scotland Today).
our scotland is part of making connections – celebrating diversity, a series of events working with children and young people across Edinburgh to explore and celebrate cultural diversity and look at migration as a two-way process.
