Justified Sinner 200: Extraordinary Trash: A Theatre Essay

Produced by Edinburgh International Book Festival in association with National Theatre Scotland, Extraordinary Trash: A Theatre Essay is a funny and provocative meditation on adaptation, authenticity, and Scottishness. Playwright Pamela Carter and director Stewart Laing have returned to archival material from their 2013 theatre production of Hogg's novel in the hope of making history. Featuring actor and film director Adura Onashile as 'The Archivist' audiences can expect a suitably meta-interpretation that is part-lecture, part-documentary, part-theatre. Warning: May Contain Truths. Created by director Stewart Laing and playwright Pamela Carter.
