Tonight Sandy Grierson Will Lecture, Dance and Box

Cultural and political history piece leaves deep impression

Genealogy combines with a cultural and political history of the modern world and some benign audience participation in this charmingly imperfect play. From a drum and bass club in Lisbon in 2010, it traces the (quite literally) unbelievable 123-year life of Grierson’s ‘great grandfather’, Arthur Craven. The conceptual script doesn’t always convince, but Grierson’s performative magnetism leaves a deep impression.

Assembly George Square, 623 3030, until 28 Aug, 7.50pm (22 Aug 9.45pm), £13 (£12).
