Between the bars: theatrical gig about life after prison reveals hard truths of homecoming

I just saw the trailer for A Giant on the Bridge and I'm literally blown away 😍. As someone who's followed this project, it's clear that Jo Mango and Liam Hurley are onto something special here. The way they're using music to tell these powerful stories about life after prison is truly innovative 🎶.

I think what resonates with me most is the emphasis on community and connection in this show. It's not just about shedding light on a tough issue, but also about creating a space for empathy and understanding. And let's be real, that's something we could all use more of right now 🤝.

What I'm excited to see is how audiences will respond to this show. Will they be moved to action, or will they just be humbled by the raw emotion on display? Either way, I think A Giant on the Bridge is going to be a game-changer for theatre in Scotland and beyond 🎭.
 
I'm still trying to process this show I saw last night 🤯... The way it tackled such a heavy topic like re-entry into society was so raw and real, you can't help but feel the emotions of those who've been through that. As a parent, seeing my child struggle in school because they're missing out on important family moments due to time in prison is heartbreaking 🤕... The musical aspect was incredible, I loved how it brought everyone together to create something beautiful from their experiences.

What struck me most though was the message of hope and connection that resonated throughout the show 🌈... As a parent, you want your child to feel seen and heard, to know they're not alone in this struggle. This show does just that, it gives a voice to those who've been silenced for too long 💫... Can't wait to see how it brings people together across Scotland!
 
omg I'm totally blown away by this new show A Giant on the Bridge 🤯 it's like, so powerful & moving - the way they use music to tell stories about life after prison is just genius 🎶 the fact that they got 200 participants to collaborate on the songs is insane 🤯 and I love how they're using theatre to create an emotional space where we can connect with people who have been through similar experiences it's like, totally cathartic 😌 the ensemble cast is amazing too - I need to see more of Scottish music! 💖
