ATHENS OF THE NORTH

Everything we were, everything we are, aun everything we’re yet tae become

Athens of The North is an interwoven, episodic monologue and love letter to Edinburgh and her people, performed in the iconic Edinburgh Hibernian Supporters Club. In a city being commodified and gentrified so rapidly, three Edinburgh characters weave in and out of each other’s lives; a stream of consciousness set in the capital city over the course of a single day. They subsequently reconnect with what their home truly means to them, in their respective pasts, presents as well as their futures
