Rose-Lynn is twentysomething and wild, feisty (an understatement), funny. Her dream? To sing country songs on Nashville’s Grand Ole Opry stage. The reality? Glasgow, a criminal record, a curfew bracelet on her ankle, two young children and a job as a cleaner.
In this fast-moving, heart-grabbing new musical by Nicole Taylor, directed by John Tiffany, we follow Rose-Lynn – a star performance from Dawn Sievewright – as she stumbles, staggers, dances, sings and fights her way along the path to self-realisation, backed all the way by a mood-shifting eight-piece band country-kaleidoscoping from rockin’ rhythms to hushed ballads under Ali Roocroft’s toe-tapping direction.
