Preview

Created by the multi-award-winning theatre company Tortoise in a Nutshell, Concerned Others offers an intimate and immersive exploration of the human stories behind Scotland's chronic drug crisis. Through a unique blend of soundscapes, installations, and storytelling, the production sheds light on the often-overlooked experiences of those affected by addiction and substance-related deaths.

Amie Barton-Young, Theatre Manager at the Macready Theatre, expressed her support for the production. “We’re honoured to host Concerned Others at Macready Theatre,” she said. “Being able to offer the people of Rugby not only professional theatre on their doorstep, but theatre that can raise awareness of such relevant issues is a privilege.”

As Scotland continues to grapple with the highest rate of deaths from drugs misuse in Europe*, Concerned Others offers a timely and thought-provoking exploration of this pressing social issue. The innovative techniques used on stage to bring human stories to life, makes this an exciting visual experience that is relevant and memorable.
