The Scottish Theatre Producers presents Grandad and Me on March 31, a show that focuses on loss, longing and the treasures of memory and imagination.

A free taster teen drama workshop for 12-16 year olds, hosted by tutor Corrie McKendrick from the Royal Conservatoire Scotland and Scottish Youth Theatre, will take central stage at the Carmichael Hall.

Tutor Corrie said: “I’m really excited that we are looking to engage a new group of young people with theatre in the East Renfrewshire area, as part of its Easter Week activities. I think it’s really important that everyone has access to a creative outlet, whatever that may be, and drama offers so much.

“It can be fun or about making people laugh, it can be a way of telling stories or finding answers and it can also be a career path, a way to build confidence, make new friends or fill up spare time.”
