Excerpts from the Revelations Of Rab McVie at the Traverse Theatre 

WATCH THE REEL BELOW:

The Herald, Arts Review Edinburgh, All Edinburgh Theatre, North West End UK, Bouquets & Brickbats
Revelations Of Rab McVie

In a windowless world plagued by darkness and despair of the impending doom a man is striving for the light... 

The script is based on an essay by Maria Rud written 28 days before the full scale war in Ukraine.

The name of the title character in the show is from the song by The Filthy Tongues, The Ghost Of Rab McVie.  The songs performed in the show are from the albums "Back To Hell", Jacob's Ladder and In These Dark Places.

The show features excerpts from two poems by Velimir Khlebnikov translated by Edwin Morgan and an excerpt from the Book Of Revelations.
