About When We Were Young

After a successful run throughout 2023 ‘WHEN WE WERE YOUNG’ is back.

When We Were Young takes the audience back to 1990s Glasgow where gang culture was at its worst and takes them on a nostalgic and emotional rollercoaster, as they follow the lives of one of the many young teams who polluted the street corners of the city.

This production is both a hilarious and eye-opening look back to 1990s Glasgow as well as a heart-breaking story of stolen youth.

This show contains strong language, adult humour and blood and is recommend for audiences aged 16+.
