Award-winning actor and producer Scott Kyle — known for Outlander, Kajaki, The Angels’ Share, Billy & Tim and Once Upon a Time in Scotland — brings his most personal work to Rutherglen Town Hall with a bold and emotionally charged spoken word performance.

“It’s Not Where You Start…” is a powerful exploration of memory, resilience, and belonging. Drawing on his lived experience — from spending time in care as a child to becoming a foster carer — Kyle gives voice to stories often left unheard.

Blending heartfelt poetry with striking comic book-style projections, this is storytelling that is both intimate and visually unforgettable. It’s a tribute to the past, a reckoning with the present, and a timely call for compassion as the UK care system faces increasing scrutiny.

Winner of the Stage Award for Acting Excellence, Scott Kyle delivers a must-see performance filled with honesty, humanity, and hope.

“The story of how Scott Kyle went from being a latch-key kid on the streets of Rutherglen to an award-winning actor starring alongside Hollywood Icon Harrison Ford is both highly amusing and incredibly inspirational.” — Paul Kelbie, Discover Scotland Magazine

“A really well-told TED Talk with beautiful animations… such an engaging, humble and honest performer.”  — Cora Bissett, award-winning theatre director and playwright

 “An amazing story and well worth your time… superb animations.”  — Nicola McCartney, award-winning playwright and director

Cost: £20.00 (subject to £1.50 transaction fee)
