SPRING
SUMMER
2016
Sponsored by
TRON.CO.UK
I’m delighted to announce one of the strongest spring and
summer programmes that we’ve assembled in recent years.
Tron Theatre Company will stage three productions, one of
which will be a newly commissioned piece for Mayfesto (2-28
May, full details to be announced in March 2016), and we will
play host to a range of exciting visiting companies, who for the
most part will present new work.
In the spring we will present Cock by Mike Bartlett, a brilliantly
witty cliff-hanger about sexual identity, in its first UK production
since the Royal Court premiere six years ago. For our Irishthemed Mayfesto, a celebration of the 100th anniversary of the
Easter Rising, we have commissioned Peter Arnott to write a
new play about the extraordinary and complex Irish martyr
Roger Casement. For our summer production, we will be
staging Martin McDonagh’s The Lonesome West, the third of
his Leenane Trilogy, so expect brutality and absurd humour
in abundance.
Highlights of our visiting programme include collaborations
with two of Scotland’s most innovative companies. Vanishing
Point will present The Destroyed Room, inspired by Jeff Wall’s
famous photograph and conceived by Matthew Lenton, and we
will co-produce a new play with Fire Exit, International Waters
by David Leddy. We welcome back Celtic Connections, Glasgow
International Comedy Festival and Mark Thomas, alongside
companies such as Lung Ha Theatre Company, Catherine
Wheels, Tron Young Company and many, many more. We are
also delighted to present a very strong programme under the
banner of Tron Creative, with new writing, Tron Labs and the
first opportunity to see previous Tron Lab works in preview.
We look to seeing you down here,

A SCOTTISH PREMIERE
‘Why are you telling me I have to know what I am?
It doesn’t matter. I love him because he makes me toast
in bed and he’s scared of cling film. I love her because
she makes me feel as old as I really am. She’s gentle.’
After his long-term gay relationship breaks down,
John unexpectedly meets a woman with whom he
discovers new pleasures and excitement. With the
ex-boyfriend preening and strutting in the background,
and his new girlfriend uncovering a whole different side
to his personality, John is increasingly wracked with
guilt and indecision about who he is and what he wants.
When a civilised dinner party to discuss the way forward
rapidly descends into a messy cockfight, John has to
make a choice. What will he do?
‘ With the precious exception of literati
like Oscar Wilde and his beloved Bosie,
quarrelling lovers are never as articulate
and entertaining as they are in Cock.’ Variety
Tron Theatre Company’s production of Mike Bartlett’s
sharp and witty play will be the first UK staging since
its Royal Court premiere six years ago.

By Martin McDonagh
Bickering brothers, Coleman and Valene share a house
in the wild west of Ireland. One obsesses about his
religious ornaments and his precious poteen, the other
thinks only of his stomach, regularly crashing funerals
in his quest for a free sausage roll. Their local priest,
troubled by a spate of murders in the area, tries, and fails,
to convince the squabbling pair to set aside their petty
differences. But when the brothers vow to be nicer to one
another and wipe the slate clean by confessing to a string
of vile misdemeanours towards one another, things can
only degenerate into vicious and bloody carnage.
The Lonesome West is the third play in Martin McDonagh’s
bleak but blackly comic Leenane trilogy.

‘Me, probably straight to heaven I’ll go, even
though I blew the head off poor dad. So long as
I go confessing to it anyways. That’s the good
thing about being Catholic. You can shoot your
dad in the head and it doesn’t even matter at all.’

SAM LEE & FRIENDS
Fri 15 Jan, 8pm, £14
Sam Lee has been hailed as
‘Britain’s most inventive folk
singer’ (Evening Standard),
a status masterfully underscored
by his recent second album,
The Fade in Time. Tonight,
Lee and his band, on violin,
Mongolian dulcimer, ukulele,
piano and percussion, are
joined by Traveller and Gypsy
tradition-bearers.
CAM PENNER & JON WOOD
WITH RAYNA GELLERT
Sat 16 Jan, 8pm, £14
By turns elemental and spectral,
Canadian Cam Penner’s gruff,
gritty folk/blues songcraft will
be atmospherically accompanied
by Jon Wood’s wizardry on guitar,
lap steel and sampler.
Speaking of former member
of acclaimed stringband Uncle
Earl, Rayna Gellert, Béla Fleck
said ‘I love Rayna’s musical
personality which is deep, funky
and complex.’
OYSTERS 3 & GRANNY GREEN
Sun 17 Jan, 8pm, £15
John Jones, Alan Prosser and
Ian Telfer, aka Oysters 3, are the
founding trio and creative core of
UK folk-rock legends Oysterband.
They present a freshly intimate
and acoustic take on that outfit’s
35-year back catalogue.
Glasgow trio Granny Green’s
arresting world/folk blend of
accordion, trumpet and tuba won
them a 2015 Open Stage Award.
YORKSTON/THORNE/KHAN
& LISA O’NEILL
101 SCOTTISH SONGS THE WEE RED BOOK
It was pure serendipity that
brought Scottish singer-songwriter
James Yorkston and Indian sarangi
player Suhail Yusuf Khan together.
Now adding jazz bassist Jon
Thorne into their mix of Khan’s
qawwali singing and Yorkston’s
little-known skills on the Swedish
nyckelharpa, the trio launch their
debut album.
The late Glasgow schoolteacher
and Labour MP Norman Buchan
was a major driving-force within the
early Scottish folk revival. Tonight’s
performance, whose cast of top
traditional singers includes Sheena
Wellington and Margaret Bennett,
celebrates Collins’ republication of
the fondly-nicknamed ‘Wee Red
Book’, an inspirational repertoire
source both then and now, in honour
of the TMSA’s 50th anniversary.
Tue 19 Jan, 8pm, £14
Cavan-born Lisa O’Neill’s
timelessly weathered voice and
straight-talking songs have seen
her hailed as a major star in the
making.
DRIFT
Wed 20 Jan, 8pm, £14
Drift is a cross-artform production
that evokes the extraordinary
story of Shetland crofter Betty
Mouat, who in 1886 spent eight
days alone and adrift on the North
Sea. Incorporating narrative and
song from the inimitable Gerda
Stevenson, Shetland-inspired
music by Eddie McGuire, and video
projections from those original
performances.
IN THE ROUND
Thu 21 Jan, 8pm, £14
An intimate night of song-sharing
from rising US stars. From Seattle,
former The Courage frontman
Noah Gundersen’s intensely
brooding, gorgeously melodic
songs wrestle movingly with the
legacy of his conservative religious
upbringing, while Kentucky
coal-miner’s daughter Angaleena
Presley skewers the heartaches
and hypocrisies of hard-pressed
ordinary Americans with trenchant
lyrical flair.
FROM THE CALTON
TO CATALONIA
Dramatising the involvement of
working-class Glasgow families
in the Spanish Civil War, From
the Calton to Catalonia was
written by Willy and John Maley
in tribute to their father James,
the conflict’s longest-surviving
Scottish veteran. This newly
revised version, directed as a
rehearsed reading by Martin
McCardie, incorporates songs of
the period from Arthur Johnstone
and guests.
GAELIC MEETS GAELIC
AMERICANA: GILLEBRIDE
MACMILLAN & KYLE CAREY
The North American journeyings
of Scottish Gaelic culture come
full circle tonight, in a concert
akin to the Transatlantic Sessions
in microcosm. From Scotland,
it features the renowned
South Uist singer Gillebrìde
MacMillan and he’s joined by
New Hampshire-based singersongwriter Kyle Carey.
MAIRI CAMPBELL ‘PULSE’
Wed 27 & Thu 28 Jan, 8pm, £14
Drawing on her combined
fluency in Celtic tradition,
free improvisation and classical
idioms, as well as her personal
artistic journey, the awardwinning Scottish singer and
fiddler/viola player Mairi Campbell
performs a new one-woman show
that blends live and recorded
music with animation, dance,
movement and storytelling.
SECKOU KEITA &
GWYNETH GLYN
Widely regarded as his
generation’s most gifted and
inventive exponent of the kora,
the ancient west African harp,
Senegal’s Seckou Keita’s
latest solo release, 22 Strings,
reconnects Keita’s experimental
virtuosity and global array of
influences with seven centuries
of ancestral tradition.
LYNCHED & CLYPE
Brilliantly revitalising the Irish
ballad-group tradition for the
21st century, Dublin quartet
Lynched match resonant fourpart harmonies with terrific
instrumental work on uilleann
pipes, concertina, Russian
accordion, fiddle and guitar.
Simon Gall and Jonny Hardie’s
band Clype are firmly rooted in
the North East of Scotland,
but pull in influences from all
over the world.

The Destroyed Room takes its inspiration from Jeff Wall’s
famous photograph, which shows a ransacked room,
where every item of furniture has been torn up and destroyed.
What happened?
The social fabric has finally torn. Airports are
closed, roads are blocked. Now even the 1% need
to seek asylum. Four obscenely rich members of
the elite pay through the nose to join an exclusive
party on the last ship leaving London. They stay
alive using the only things they know – money, sex
and madness. But the ship is sailing in the wrong
direction. They don’t know each other. They don’t
know the Captain. They don’t know what the hell is
going on.
International Waters comes from multi-awardwinning writer and director David Leddy, who has
been called a ‘maverick’ (Guardian), a ‘genius’
(Scotsman), an ‘innovator’ (Times) and an
‘institution’ (Independent).
Written and directed by David Leddy
Supported by Creative Scotland
It begins with what seems to be the recording of a TV show,
as guests gather to digest world events. They sit among potted
plants and standard lamps, discussing the things they have
witnessed and debating the ethics of watching. Around them,
cameras glide, filming their every word and every reaction,
beaming them live onto a big screen. As the debate intensifies,
slowly and as if in a dream, the atmosphere begins to change.
The Destroyed Room is about the profusion of lenses, which
bring the world right into our rooms but also keep it at a
distance. It’s about what we see and what we turn away from.
And what’s coming.

Ssssh!
No, but seriously Sssssssh!
A sponsored silence is on; so whatever you do you have
to keep it zipped, keep it buttoned, keep it together - even
when one of the group is doing all they can to break you
down. And how can you, can anyone, stay silent when
one of the team has just won wads of cash; and what about
those builders who just keep popping in and out, surely
something has to be said to them?
Renowned playwright Douglas Maxwell, composer
MJ McCarthy and the Lung Ha Theatre Company
performers take you on a (quiet) journey where silence
is golden but there are many ways to overcome silence
when there is just so much to be said.

MARK THOMAS:
TRESPASS
Wed 13 - Fri 15 Apr, 8pm
Main Auditorium
£10-£16
Trespass carries on from where Mark’s previous
show 100 Acts of Minor Dissent left off. It is his usual
odd mix of theatre, stand up, activism, a dash of
journalism and a dollop of mayhem. Mark asks the
questions: If the ramblers of the 1930s were here now
what would they do to open up the cities? How do we
turn the skyscrapers and corporate squares into our
playgrounds?
He sets out to try and carve a small space in the
urban world where mischief and random chance can
lurk. No one knows where this show is going to end up.

CRASH
‘Everything that happens is created by you.’
Confidence is everything in the world of high finance.
Confidence in yourself, confidence in the market.
Lose that and you lose everything.
Crash is the story of an enigmatic trader attempting
to rebuild his life following a tragic event. As he takes
the first tentative steps back into the brutal landscape
of trading stocks, he feels the pressure begin to build.
In the continuing wake of the financial crisis, Scottish
writer Andy Duffy creates a rare and poetic insight into
the psychology of a banker’s world.
Directed by Traverse Associate Artist Emma Callander,
acclaimed for recent festival hits Cuckooed (Fringe First
Award) and Theatre Uncut (Fringe First and Herald Angel Award).

LEAF BY NIGGLE
Niggle is a painter. Not a very successful one, partly
because he has so many other things to do. For some
time he has been obsessed with one particular canvas a curious picture of a tree with a vast landscape stretching
out behind it. The painting keeps getting bigger and
bigger, but Niggle has a journey to make. He doesn’t
want to go, but he cannot get out of it…
In 1939 Tolkien was despairing of ever bringing his great
work The Lord of the Rings to a conclusion. One morning
he woke up with Leaf by Niggle complete in his mind and
wrote it down. Surrounded by ladders, bicycles, easels
and heirlooms, Richard Medrington (Jean from The Man
Who Planted Trees) recounts Tolkien’s miniature masterpiece,
with music specially composed by Karine Polwart.

SHEEP
‘Come on. Are we all pretending this isn’t happening? He was the last
guy we know to die. That soldier that turned up is probably going
to someone else’s funeral and someone else’s after that. He’ll be
deployed to turn up and pay his respects: make the widow feel good
and then they won’t blame the state or the military or whatever.’
Inspired by attitudes to war and militarisation, from historical
perspectives to current media representation, Tron Young
Company have created a blistering new original work that asks
questions of accepted roles for women and men in conflict,
modern society’s use of propaganda, and what happens when
war arrives on your doorstep.
Directed by Martin O’Connor
Designed by Kirsty McCabe
Supported by Youngstart delivered by The Big Lottery
30:60:80 is a celebration of three lives, spanning fifty years
with the women of one family and inviting audiences to
consider the richness in their own maternal herstory.
When Amy’s grandma turned 30, she had three children
and was thankful to finally live in a house with an indoor
toilet. When Amy’s mum turned 30, she had a profession,
a mortgage and was pregnant with her first child.
Amy just turned 30. She’s single, chancing it, and certain
about exactly nothing.
30:60:80 is an invitation to three landmark birthdays to
meet three remarkable birthday girls.

Welcome to the beautifully strange world of White. Full of birdsong

Two friends look after the birds and make sure the eggs stay safe.
We watch, we help. The world is bright, ordered and white. But
high up in the trees, all is not white. Colour appears. First red...
then yellow... then blue...
White is a playful, highly visual show for very young children
and is a perfect first time theatre experience.

Twenty-five. Quarter of a century years old. I am happily engaged,
have a down payment on a two bed and a glamorous but reliable
job. Aged 10, this is how I saw my future. In reality I live at home
and have yet to find my soulmate. I attempt to bake. I often date.
And I sometimes frequent DIY stores. All before another glass of
wine. These are the little ways I try to feel like an adult.
I know there are pros and cons to being this age,
I just haven’t figured out the pros yet.

Mike Bartlett’s (Doctor Foster, King Charles III, The Town, 13)
rampaging panorama of the UK in the twenty first century has at
its epicentre the unsettled lives of three sisters: one a politician,
another heavily pregnant and the other a rebellious teenager.
They share an absent scientist father who has predicted the
environmental annihilation of humanity. All four struggle to find
their truths against a shifting backdrop of strip joints, business
meetings, rural Scotland, uncomfortable truths and swimming in
Hampstead Heath.
A chaotic odyssey of contemporary excess, where people and
belief systems are in relentless movement and transformation.

The Progressive Playwright returns with reading of plays from

LOVE
DECEIT
Directed by Alison Peebles
Submission deadline: 22 Feb
Directed by Katherine Nesbitt
Submission deadline: 2 May
JEALOUSY
Directed by Allie Butler
Submission deadline: 28 Mar
Little King and his string quartet blend song, storytelling, spoken
word and instrumental music to examine a fractious relationship
between a city and one of its sons. Expect the patter and slang
of Belfast, the caustic black humour of Belfast, all bent together
to inspire stories and songs that cut through the sleech,
and speak to the heart.
Written, composed and performed by Matt Regan
Directed by Claire Willoughby

Isobel has been on a journey. With herself. With a voice that
travels between Manchester and Glasgow more regularly than
a Virgin Pendolino, Isobel (and Isobel) are determined to find out
whether accent matters and if how you say it holds more sway than
what you’re saying.
Told onstage and onscreen, How to Sing It explores the turmoil
in rewriting the music of our voices.

TRIBUTE TO JOBIM/GETZ
Widely known as the composer
of The Girl From Ipanema, one of
the most recorded songs of all
time, Jobim left a large number
of songs that are now included
in jazz and pop standard
repertoires. An innovator in his
use of sophisticated harmony
and melody in popular song,
his music, often wrongly
classed as little more than
elevator music, demands closer
listening.
Sun 26 Jun, 2pm, £8
JAZZ PIANO DUOS
Expect keyboard fireworks,
telepathic interplay and
virtuosic interpretations of
classic standards and original
compositions.

The ancient Scottish art of flyting has been dormant long enough.
In this afternoon session ranters and poets will speak out against
their own pet hates. They may be as pugnacious and personal as
they like however, they will be answered immediately by our panel
of objectionable contrarians - one of whom will come back with
a series of withering retorts. The floor will run crimson from the
wounds of the injured! And the audience will decide the winner of
each bout. Come and have a go if you think you’re bard enough!
Robin Cairns comperes.

you’re telling are about something that isn’t real? Is your story

BAR &
KITCHEN
Where you’re always welcome...
We’ve had great feedback on our new look and new
menus and Head Chef Mark McKenzie and his team
continue to create interesting and flavoursome fare
using fresh, local ingredients. As well as updating the
menus for the Spring/Summer season, we’ve introduced
a series of free events in the Vic Bar to complement
the existing programme of music. So whether you like
comedy or acoustic sessions, spoken word or Irish trad
music, drop by, grab a beer (from our recently installed
West Kegerator) and enjoy.
Tron Bar & Kitchen becomes the place to be on a
Sunday, with brunch from 11am featuring classics like
Eggs Benedict and Eggs Florentine. And for those who
prefer a heartier meal, our head chef is now roasting
a delicious cut of Aberdeen Angus every week for the
classic Sunday lunch.
We’ve extended food service on Friday and Saturday
evenings until 10pm so if you’ve no plans to see a
theatre show, you can enjoy our evening menu at a
more leisurely pace. If you do have tickets for a show
however, we’re continuing to offer a 10% reduction on
all pre-theatre food*. Do book ahead though, online or
by calling 0141 552 8587 to ensure that we can get you
wined and dined ahead of the show.

events or to make a reservation visit:
