Persevere
Synopsis:
Persevere is named for the motto of Leith itself, and is a complex 80-minute promenade show in five strands, telling the stories of five people - a wife, a sister, a mother, a pacifist teacher and a recruiting sergeant - left behind by the disaster. The narrative structure is simple but inspired; each strand has three acts, one set before the soldiers' departure, one on the day of the crash, and one at the funerals. Joyce McMillan, Scotsman
