Review – Hingin' Oan Fir Googsie ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Braveheart star Jimmy Chisholm leads cast in hilarious, thought-provoking Scottish comedy.
Given up on Waiting For Godot? Never fear, you'll have a blast at Hingin' Oan Fir Googsie.
Running for four more nights only, John McColl's new play at Braw Venues on George Street opened to much hearty laughter and rapturous applause from a largely local audience, an element of the warm reception no doubt down to the presence of Braveheart and River City legend Jimmy Chisholm, leading the cast as Ghillie.
It wasn't just Chisholm's deft and generous performance, playing up the warm, comic humanity of the character that carried the show however, but compelling turns from the rest of the cast and an absurdist, laugh out loud funny script that had the house in fits from the outset while still addressing the challenges of dementia with dignity.
