Black Watch (The National Theatre of Scotland)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 15 ноя 2024
- The National Theatre of Scotland's critically acclaimed international theatre sensation. Hurtling from a pool room in Fife to an armoured wagon in Iraq, Black Watch is based on recent interviews conducted by playwright Gregory Burke --winner of the Writers' Guild of Great Britain's Best Play (Theatre) award -- 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. In its five-star review, The Herald wrote, "Black Watch is an astonishing artistic whirlwind. The world must see this play. Immediately." Location TBA.

I saw the production twice at the Broadway Armory in Chicago. Without question, it was one of the 5 most remarkable theatrical events that I've ever witnessed. Beautiful, visceral, and utterly heartbreaking. Thank you, National Theatre of Scotland. Please remount this production and bring it back to Chicago!
Watched this live 10 years ago. It was incredible.
I worked as an Usher when it toured here in SF courtesy of ACT. It Was so fitting that the venue were the Drill Court at the Armory.I The cast were themost amazing group of young men I'ver ever had the Allasone of working with
saw this tonight in Glasgow at the SECC.
absolutely. amazing.
i saw this in 2010, the first ever show of the 2010 cast, although these guys are just as brilliant, i went to see it again because it was so amazing! Gives me tingles. Gregory Burke is one of the most talented writers of our time!
Just saw this show in Brooklyn. It was powerful in a way I've never experienced with a play. I love this show and I'm so damned glad I saw it.
Wonderful piece of theatre. Saw two different tours with different casts in New York City. It is powerful, not recommended for soldiers with active PTSD. I especially found the "letters from home" scene absolutely wonderful and devastating.
Superb play, saw you in Glenrothes. Gave me a humerious side to what my brother does for a living.
Just found out, it's here on RUclips. Off to watch it.

Just saw it in Chicago. Just beautiful.
The tune by snow patrol is in the show, as used in the scene here.
The opening song is Spitting Games by Snow Patrol
Yeah, it's A Thearlaich Oig (Oh Young Charles Stewart) by Martyn Bennett. So sad and beautiful.

Wondering if you ever found out if it's available on dvd, gaz. Saw a bit about it on tv last week. If not, it should be. Looks brilliant.
I just saw this from luminato 2008, do guys know the song from where guys were dramatically floating in the air with strings.
that show is good we are peerforming that on sat ours is set in a playpark insted of a bar and ours has no bad language.
Hi mate i would be very interested to see this play, if you could tell me how to upload it it would be fantastic!!!
I'm looking for the "wee Bonnie Lass" tune (3:49) that's sung a couple of times - is it a traditional song or was it written for this play
I feel poorer for not having seen this on stage.

I know you must be proud of being Scottish and the Black Watch but I wouldn't say they were the best regiment in the British army, they are good but not the best, The rifles have a battalion which is part of the commando, 1st Btt. Then you got The Mercians, Royal Anglian Regiment, Guards, PWRR and far by the best regiment in the armed forces alongside the Royal Marines are the Paras, now you can't tell me the Black Watch are better than the Paras lol. Btw i think the Black Watch are brilliant.
You must be fun at parties
