ALT Men Don't Talk a new play by Clare Prenton. Three men find banter, bird boxes and biscuits in a fictional men's shed, which celebrates companionship, camaraderie... and custard creams. Clare Prentonās poignant, hilarious, moving and thought-provoking play, Men Donāt Talk, explores the myth that āmen donāt talkā.
Written following cups of tea, cake and spirited conversations with real āsheddersā, the play welcomes audiences into a friendly fictional shed, inspired by real mensā stories.
Presented in conjunction with the Scottish Mens Shed Association, the play has been praised in the Scottish Parliament for promoting the benefits of this growing mental health and wellbeing movement - vital in Scotland today.
I only managed to forge a career here in Scotland with support from the OPF for individuals, helping to create some amazing work and employing literally hundreds of creatives
#NoArtWithoutArtists
The arts is in crisis here in Scotland. A lot of my work would not have been possible without the OPF for individuals, supporting literally hundreds of creatives here in Scotland
So proud of how everyone is standing together!
