The Arts Programme at Craignish Village Hall in Ardfern hits its autumn stride in style on Thursday October 19 with a performance of Luke Norris’s award-winning play Growth, currently on tour to 29 venues across the UK.
Funny, raw and moving, Growth is a comingof- age story about a young man dealing with an overwhelming problem. Tobes has successfully ignored his lump for two years … but it’s starting to get in the way and cramping his style, so now there are decisions to be made and pants to be dropped! Writer Luke Norris has won numerous awards including two Manchester Theatre Awards and a Fringe First for Growth. He is also known as an actor, on screen most recently in BBC’s Poldark, and previously in Skins and The Inbetweeners. Producers Paines Plough have assembled an outstanding cast of talented young actors for Growth with Dafydd Llyr Thomas (Royal Shakespeare Company, National Theatre Wales), and rising star Safiyya Ingar and, as Tobes, Dominic Jones. Growth is a must-see highlight of the 2017 Craignish Arts Programme, which is supported by Creative Scotland, Argyll and Bute Council, the Craignish Trust and The Touring Network.
