Duncan McLean

Julie Allardyce rushes into the theatre like a fresh breeze off the North Sea. It is loud and coarse-tongued and funny . . . a play which opens doors and shoves the audience through into areas of new experience' (Scotland on Sunday)

Blackden - 'Something of a revelation . . . A gripping, ominous meditation on the strange disappearance of a young man in his prime, driven along by the hard, powerful lilt of McLean's Aberdeenshire Scots' (Scotland on Sunday)

Also included are Rug Comes to Shuv: 'nasty, brutish and hilarious ... fast, furious and foul-mouthed, it enriches the belly laughs with unexpectedly poignant undercurrents' (The Scotsman) and two other short pieces - One Sure Thing and I'd Rather Go Blind.

"A magnificent writer with liberal empathy for man's dark side" ~ Daily Telegraph
