In all some thirty of his works are performed although these may change thus making each show unique. The songs and poems are woven into a narrative telling about key points in Burns' life from his birth in 1759 to his untimely death just 37 years later. The best way to enjoy Burns is to take part so audience participation is encouraged where songs have choruses, even down to supplying the words! |
