Today I'm sharing my two page adaptation of Greenock's Galoshans Play, with art by Zu Dominiak. It was produced for a performance of the play at the Beacon Arts Centre as part of the always epic Galoshans Festival.
Here in Greenock, Galoshans is a Halloween tradition, elsewhere in Scotland, the play is performed at Christmas and New Years, similar to mumming plays that are found elsewhere. The Galoshans Play is a resurrection drama, celebrating death and rebirth, so it honestly maybe makes more sense around Christmas and midwinter, but I like to think that just means Inverclyde gets two bites at the cherry.
