About this show
'Best of the Festival and Fringe: Riveting Highland tales fresh from the Gaelic' (Independent). Presented by James MacDonald Reid in the traditional manner, with Gaelic songs and antique Highland bagpipes. James MacDonald Reid 'is a hugely accomplished teller of tales, quietly humourous and learnedly respectful of his craft. This is a rare Fringe opportunity to plug into ancient currents and it should be grabbed at by anyone who sees the arts as more than just a series of transient events' (Scotsman).
