About This Is Memorial Device
The fictional history of 1980s Airdrie’s mysterious, post-punk legends, it is a gloriously hallucinatory journey, back to the hopes and dreams of early adulthood, performed by Paul Higgins (The Thick of It, Slow Horses) with music by Stephen McRobbie (The Pastels) and Gavin Thomson.
Performed by Paul Higgins. Featuring filmed performances by Mary Gapinski, Sanjeev Kohli, Julie Wilson Nimmo, Gabriel Quigley and Martin Quinn.
‘Memories of fictional indie heroes burn brightly.’ ★★★★ The Guardian
‘A psychoactive hymn to the power of saying yes to experience.’ ★★★★ The Herald
‘Paul Higgins delivering a poignant and beautiful performance.’ ★★★★ The Scotsman (Fringe First winner 2022)
