Alan Bissett –writer, performer and Bairn – asks the most vital question of our age. What is Fawkurt aw aboot?
His research has been exhaustive. He’s eaten numerous bar lunches in Behind the Wall. He’s searched in the archives at Callendar House for ancient scribbles by Shire fans. He’s interviewed drunken punters in the queue for City, asking: what does it mean to come from Falkirk? What does it mean to come from anywhere? Now he’s ready to present his findings.
Join Alan and Falkirk musician Adam Stafford on a comical, musical, magical mystery tour through the past and present of an unremarkable, post-industrial Scottish town that’s definitely not Stirling!
