Drama
The Tailor of Inverness
‘I come from a farm, from the forests and fields of green Ukraine, from the ruins of Germany, from the beaches of the Adriatic, from the grimy streets of Glasgow and the cool air of Inverness.’ Words, music, dance and video combine to tell the moving story of this ordinary man caught by the murderous tides of the Second World War. Evoking poignant memories of post war Scotland, this is a story of journeys, of how a boy who grew up on a farm in Galicia (Eastern Poland, now Western Ukraine) came to be a tailor in Inverness.
