Isla Cowan
Strange Town’s tidal trilogy
Youth company celebrates 15th year with trilogy at Traverse
Youth company Strange Town is celebrating its 15th anniversary this year and will be staging a trilogy of new plays, in the theme of Tides, performed by its young companies at the Traverse in June.
Battery Park
★★★★☆ Musically convincing
Battery Park, the touring production from Sleeping Warrior and the Beacon Arts Centre at the Traverse for two nights only, is a gripping and tuneful piece of theatre.
And… And… And…
★★★★☆ Captures the essence
Strange Town Touring Company’s And… And… And… takes time out from its tour round Edinburgh’s schools, to play the Traverse for two nights only, proving that Isla Cowan’s script is worth a wider audience.
She Wolf
★★★★★ Fierce
Isla Cowan’s hard-hitting monologue She Wolf, winner of this year’s Assembly ART Award and the Alpine Fellowship Theatre Prize, fits perfectly in the intimate space of the Assembly Roxy Downstairs.
