COME TO WHERE I AM: SHEDINBURGH (EDINBURGH)

About the show

A collection of four standalone monologues exploring themes of home, displacement, and personal resilience. Hannah Lavery performs her own piece about unspoken thoughts. Linda McLean's work, performed by Mary Gapinski, examines invisible origins. Uma Nada-Rajah's piece, performed by Israela Efomi, takes its title from a tool. Gary McNair's contribution, performed by Martin Donaghy, centers on a garment. Together, the four stories navigate the experience of belonging and dislocation, mapping routes through Glasgow and Scotland while addressing the overlooked details of lived experience. Presented by Paines Plough in association with Playwrights' Studio Scotland, the production stages these interconnected narratives as a meditation on identity and place.
