At 17, Charlie Murphy thought community service at a Glasgow homeless drop-in centre would be easy. Just kill time and get out. He didn’t expect the people he would meet there. A veteran broken by Basra. A grandmother too ashamed to face her grandchildren. A young woman fighting her way back from a past that was never fair. A father who never came back from the worst night of his life. Performed with a live musician throughout, Turn a Different Corner gives voice to the people the world walks past and asks one simple question: what separates us from them? Gritty, funny and devastating in equal measure. Scottish drama with real heart. “I laughed so much, but I left the theatre an emotional wreck.” — Audience member “Rare talent for getting to the inner core of its characters.” — National Theatre of Scotland

Not the same tradition as the lineage above — a genuinely different thread to pull, if you want one.
