Up A Close is the story of Joanna, looking back on her life in her Partick tenement flat, when her husband doesn't come home one night, she reminisces on her marriage, her children, the wonderful times she had growing up in the mid 70s with her mum, dad and her auntie Sandra. Her best friend Anne Marie, the nuns and dancing up the toon to the Bay City Rollers. The audience will laugh and cry and identify themselves in this brilliantly written and acted play of tough love and hope and laughter, full of nostalgia, poignancy and fun and Pure Glasgow banter.

Art by Ronnie Murray.
I am a dynamic artist / illustrator with a great passion for painting.
In many cases my art depicts scenes of places I have visited over the years.
I also enjoy producing nostalgic paintings of local interest which brings back many memories of bygone days.
