A rough and ready Burns is brought into the modern day in this adaptation of Donald Smith's novel Between Ourselves. Ages 14+.

Meet the real, edgy Bard. In crisis and contradiction. This intimate portrait of Burns premiered on the 2010 Fringe to critical acclaim. Based on Donald Smith's controversial novel, Between Ourselves, it focuses on the pivotal crisis of Burns' life and career – his stay in Edinburgh. Recreating his lost (or unwritten) diaries, meet Edinburgh high and low through Burns' eyes – encountering the familiar and unexpected. It’s the man behind the myth, but one who wears many masks. 'Raw, punchy and a universe away from shortbread tins' ★★★★ (List). ★★★★ (Three Weeks). ★★★★ (EdinburghTheatreGuide.com). Ages 14+.
