What was the inspiration for this performance?
WE WERE STARTING TO PRODUCE A LOT OF WONDERFUL SHOWS, ESPECIALLY MUSICAL THEATRE IN SCOTLAND. CREDITS INCLUDE ELEGIES FOR ANGELS, PUNKS AND RAGING QUEENS, COMPANY AND LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS. WE WERE GETTING TO A POINT WE WANTED TO DO SOME NEW AND ESPECIALLY COMMERCIAL MUSICAL THEATRE IN SCOTLAND AND SAW A MARKET.
WE STARTED WITH A PILOT AT THE TRON THEATRE WITH I WILL SURVIVE, WHICH GREW INTO A THREE YEAR SUCCESSFUL TOUR ACROSS SCOTLAND. WE NEEDED A SEQUEL, SO AUDIENCES WOULDN'T GET BORED, SO GIRLS' NIGHT OOT! WAS BORN. WHAT AN INCREDIBLE JOURNEY IT HAS BEEN.

Is performance still a good space for the public discussion of ideas?
ABSOLUTELY! OUR SHOW IS VERY COMMERCIAL AND IT HAS A HEART. IT IS ABOUT FRIENDSHIPS, LOYALTY AND ABOUT LIVING IN THE MOMENT AND NOT TAKING LIFE SO SERIOUSLY. SOMETHING WE CAN ALL RELATE TO.
How did you become interested in making performance?
I STARTED OFF AS AN ACTOR FOR MANY YEARS AND LOVE THE INDUSTRY. I WANTED TO CREATE WORK FOR ACTORS AND MAKE NEW THEATRE. AT INSIDEOUT WE LOVE CREATING NEW IDEAS AND WORKING WITH INCREDIBLE LOCAL PROFESSIONAL TALENT.

Is there any particular approach to the making of the show?
WITH THIS PARTICULAR SHOW-IT IS ABOUT THE COMBINATION OF FOUR GREAT LEADING LADIES. THEY ALL NEED TO HAVE THE CHEMISTRY THAT A REAL GROUP OF FRIENDS DO. ALSO THE MUSIC IS IMPORTANT. WE NEED TO DRAW THE AUDIENCE IN FROM THE OPENING NUMBER TO GET THEM INVOLVED AS THEY ARE MEANT TO COME ON THE JOURNEY OF THE GIRLS' NIGHT OOT!
