Jock: Scotland on Trial archiveA police interview room. Jock has been hauled in for a crime he says he didn't commit: theft from other countries. He has been spotted at the scene but was he manipulated by his bosses? Was he there out of need? Or is Jock, as he claims, the victim of imperialism himself? From one of the leading voices in the cultural movement for Scottish independence, Jock is a provocative and timely piece of theatre. Performed so far only as a work-in-progress, this is the first ever full production of Jock and the first time it has been seen by English audiences.
