About this Event
The Borrowed Room is a new play by Scottish writer and academic Dr Steven Maxwell, staged as a script-in-hand performance. After running at various venues in Edinburgh and Glasgow, the show is now offered as a fundraising event for Arkordia, a local charity that provides mental health services to people on low incomes. All proceeds from the show will go directly to support the charity's activities.
The story revolves around Graham (Adam Tomkins) and Ewan (Mark Kydd). Graham is a journalist living in a small Scottish coastal town who is writing an article for the local paper on why some people leave, a topic that seems to represent an existential quest for him too. As part of this endeavour, he interviews Ewan, a former resident who was once his friend. The interview unveils more that Graham seemed to have anticipated.
