Hi,
My 10 year old son and I went along to see Divided City on Wednesday night at the Citizens and it was absolutely fantastic. The young cast were a tribute to their schools and families. My son had studied the book at school this year and for him the experienec of the live production was incredible. For his 44 year old Dad this really struck a memory to my upbringing in Glasgow.
Well done once again and all the best for the future.
