Dogstar Theatre Company presents

THE TAILOR OF INVERNESS

Krawiec z Invernessu

Written & performed by Matthew Zajac

With Jonny Hardie/Gavin Marwick on violin


Directed by Ben Harrison

Designed by Ali Maclaurin

Musical direction by Jonny Hardie & Gavin Marwick


Matthew Zajac’s stunning show about his Polish-Ukrainian father has entranced over 40,000 people, playing in a huge variety of venues from prestigious theatres in cities which include New York, Adelaide, Glasgow, Kyiv, London, Malmo and Berlin, to tiny village halls. This is a rare chance to see this unforgettable and moving story of displacement and survival in war-torn Europe, a powerful allegory for all victims of war.


Winner of a Scotsman Fringe First, the Stage Best Solo Performer Award at the Edinburgh Fringe and the 2009 Best Actor Award from the Scottish Critics.
