From Kilsyth to Carluke, 32 schools and college groups have visited Lanternhouse this week for Tally’s Blood, our co-production alongside The Gaiety, Ayr, and Perth Theatre. We would like to thank all those teachers who chose us for their Drama and English group trips.
Here are some snapshots of the week.
