A Play, A Pie & A Pint - Dr Johnson Goes To Scotland
A new take on the famous Journey to the Western Isles of 1773 in which Samuel 'Dictionary' Johnson travels north to explore three new languages (Scots, Gaelic and an early form of British Sign Language) in the company of his biographer James Boswell. Told with wit, whisky and song this sequel to last year's sell-out 'A Word with Dr Johnson' is a literary adventure that asks, 'Who owns language?'
