Number one hits from the era accompany this tale of growing up in 1970s Edinburgh.
Craft Theatre Company / The Stand Comedy Club.
Following last year's sell-out, Shang-a-Lang returns! This is what life was like growing up in 70s Edinburgh. Told through laughter, tears and music, we follow Jim's life as he negotiates the stormy waters of 70s adolescence. From school playground to school disco we witness his life through his eyes as it unfolds around him. Witness his first encounters with death and his stumbling dealings with the opposite sex. This production has it all! A strong young cast brings this story to life with a verve and energy that will leave you crying out for more. All ages.
