Bog Standard is the gripping true story of a tip off which led a rookie journalist to one of the most important archaeological finds of the 20th century. It’s also a story about a magical bogland called Lindow Moss, two murders 1500 years apart, and how an ancient bog man became a 21st-century eco warrior. Award-winning health journalist and storyteller Rachel Pugh and prize-winning harpist Lucy Nolan collaborate in a show weaving words, music and natural bog sounds from the UK and Kyrgyzstan to recreate the nail-biting days of 1984 when Rachel fought to save Lindow Man from ending up in a bag of compost! Directed by Marion Kenny. ~~~~~ Edinburgh Tradfest presents the very best traditional music and traditional arts from Scotland and around the world. This year's dates are Fri 2 – Mon 12 May 2025.
