Singing Far into the Night

Work:: Singing Far into the Night (S02089755188)

A stylish, profound and moving play based on real lives and events. Connal MacNab, able seaman and naval boxing champion, comes home on leave to find Glasgow in the grip of political and industrial strife. When the government threaten drastic wage cuts in the armed services, the consequences are dire. British authority is shaken by an uprising within the Atlantic Fleet at Invergordon. Connal is thrown into events leading to and beyond the mutiny as the world changes beyond recognition. This play is about courage, identity, separation and loss, showing what can happen when the high hand of authority is ultimately disobeyed.
