Description

For the latest Scots Whay Hae! podcast Ali caught up with journalist, critic, and presenter Fergus Morgan to talk about the excellent podcast A History of Scottish Drama in Six Plays, which you can get in all the usual places. Scottish drama doesn't get the coverage it deserves, but Fergus's podcast goes some way to right that situation.


He talks about why he chose these six plays, gives a brief explanation of each, emphasises the importance of putting them in historical context, and offers an alternative timeline if events had been different.


The two also discuss those who didn't make the final six, the themes uncovered from Fergus's research, the seventh bonus live podcast, and the current state of drama in Scotland.


In an increasingly busy podcast world, A History of Scottish Drama in Six Plays is one of the year's best and I highly recommend it whether you know your history, or if you are a newcomer to the glorious world of Scottish drama. It was such a pleasure to talk to Fergus and get behind the stories he has to tell, and the plays which inspired them.
