well hopefully you'll be able to sleep tonight
TCBon, Friday night was the only performance and I went with my mate and her parents who I was down staying in Edinburgh with for the weekend...
We absolutely LOVED it - the music/singing was fantastic and the story itself was very moving and certainly kept you involved with the characters and what was happening with them. At several points I was sobbing my wee heart out. (Cam got a row for not warning me to take tissues despite surely knowing what a sap I am for a sad story)
Perhaps being a Christian made the story behind it even more poignant for me - how people at that time in history were willing to be martyred for what they believed in - how seriously do I take my faith and what would I be willing to do? etc etc
There were only nine adults and two children involved but the singing came across very powerfully. *Cameron's vibrato maybe needs a bit of work to be in the same league as the West-End performers

but he was certainly the most convincing Scottish accent

I LOVED the guy who played James and would easily have taken him home to sing to me all day
All in all it was an excellent evening and I certainly hope that the funding to do the full-scale musical comes through, as it has so much potential.
hope that satisfies everyone's curiosity, if you were curious in the first place that is
