“Glasgow’s creative, contradictory and rough around the edges”

United Zingdom

Available for over a year

Zing’s first trip to Glasgow has to wait because of the coronavirus lockdown. Luckily, Glaswegian poet and performer Kevin Gilday has the perfect antidote to Zing's cabin fever: a virtual tour around the places, culture and history of his home city. Kevin shares what he learnt about Scottish identity by writing his one-man show, Suffering From Scottishness, and explains why his accent produces different reactions around the world.
