GAIETY MAIN AUDITORIUM
Sat 7 March 2026 | 7.30pm
Tickets: £18.00 – £22.00
Unflinching, spellbinding gig-theatre featuring Louis Abbott (Admiral Fallow), Kim Grant (Raveloe), Dave Hook (Solareye, Stanley Odd), Jo Mango and Jill O’Sullivan. “Do you think cos I’ve been in the jail all I know is how to hurt people?” Every year in Scotland thousands of people return home from prison to an uncertain future. A Giant on the Bridge reveals the intimate human experiences within this prison-homecoming journey, in a compelling narrative-gig which fuses acoustic songwriting, Scottish hip hop & original storytelling. Five of Scotland’s leading contemporary musicians explore identity, family, community, systems, restoration, injustice – and the pulsing heartbeat within these hidden stories. Devised by singer-songwriter Jo Mango & award-winning theatre-maker Liam Hurley with research by Phil Crockett Thomas. Developed through the work of the Distant Voices Community on a research project with people from across the criminal justice system.
