Message by Mikey74 in Guy's forum about this show:


Guy, congratulations on Local Hero last night.
The songs, the musicians and the actors are a formidable and powerful ensemble and made for a thoroughly enjoyable evening.
A 3 hour show for a £10 ticket was fantastic value….as a canny Scotsman, and to borrow a line…”that’ll do nicely, very very nicely” !

I noticed John McCusker in your company last night, was he involved with the musical production at any stage ?

Guy answer:

Thanks. It was a great evening for sure. Still a lot of work to do, in all departments but as a first preview, “it’s amazing what you get”.

Yes, John played on our (demo) recordings and in the pit on fiddle was the wonderful Patsy Reid.
