Cops and Monsters Crowdfunding

Up to Glasgow this morning to assist in filming a promotional video for crowdfunding of the web series 'Cops and Monsters'

Popular stand up comedian Billy Kirkwood plays a major part in the series and he fronted the promo video.

We filmed in the Govanhill baths - now a community theatre - and an interesting and diverse building that is undergoing transformation on a daily basis.

Here are a few images from the day.

Theatre Royal - Glasgow

A few images from the Theatre Royal 'Open Doors' tour.

Enjoyed the tour and the guide was very friendly and informative as we went around the theatre.

Always nice to see behind the scenes of these old theatres and hear some of the interesting history.

Edinburgh Fringe Festival

The Edinburgh Fringe has been on my wish list for a good few years but only managed to get through this year.

Kicking myself I left it so long.

A multitude of experiences in just a short walk, and a really good feel factor abounded throughout the day.

A big personal thanks to all the very kind and generous acts that made themselves available on the day to allow me to capture - I hope - a flavour of the events.

Beacon Arts Centre - Open Day

Today was the open day for the general public to view Greenock's new Beacons Art Centre.

The Beacon is the replacement for the Greenock Arts Guild Theatre.

Although he external design has come under much local criticism - rightly in my opinion - it has to be said the the interior is a triumph and should prove a great asset to the area.
