The most prolific theatre company in Europe? It’s on Byres Road A play (and a pie, and a pint) is the thing

For @glasgowbell.bsky.social, I wrote about Glasgow's @playpiepint.bsky.social, which produces more new plays than anywhere in Europe or North America--and serves a hell of a Scotch pie: www.glasgowbell.co.uk/glasgow-most...

Opening our Spring 2025 season is Dookin' Oot by Éimi Quinn!

Éimi's first play #TheFuneralClub was a big hit at Òran Mór last year and is now being developed into a TV show.

Don’t miss her new black comedy this Feb, about a wild money-making scheme!
