The Glen of the Red River goes to Edinburgh!

Today, Saturday 23rd November 2013, The Walking Youth Theatre headed to Edinburgh, to present the Glen of the Red River project as part of the “Previously…Scotland’s History Festival”.

The day included a number of All Our Stories projects being presented, from all over Scotland, focusing on a diverse variety of projects that have been in development!

Sadie Dixon-Spain and Gerry McLaughlin from the Walking Youth Theatre began the Glen of the Red River presentation with a fantastic, energetic performance of the Glendaruel Guageman, taking our audience back in time to historic Glendaruel, and setting the scene for our beautiful Glen.

Alana Mathers and Sadie then delved into a presentation on the Glen of the Red River project, sharing information on the project, the work of the Kilmodan Primary Pupils, the development of the website, some of the interesting historical stories discovered…and of course, the Red River Rap!

The audience very much enjoyed learning about our project, and watching the fantastic film of the Kilmodan Primary Pupils sharing our Glen’s history!

A great event, and some great publicity for the Glen of the Red River!
