Josie Long: Now Is the Time of Monsters
A new show about extinct gigantic, charismatic, megafauna from 3-time Edinburgh Comedy Award Nominated Comedian, and very good comedian Josie Long. In these troubled times, in this wicked world, it can feel like apocalypse is everywhere but did you know 11,000 years ago there were some really big armadillos? I’m talking about as big as a car. Really big. And they were vegetarian so don’t even worry about them. Also my daughter has a hamster and I’m not saying distract yourself from everything, but I’m saying he’s also part of everything. Josie is back with a new show about discovery, wonder, extinction and how to walk through a landscape of monstrous disaster. There is also a good tip about silt, guaranteed.

A guided walk with Dr. Micah Mackay Join us for an immersive exploration of Solastalgia—the deep ache of a changing world—through movement, observation, and collaborative creation.

Using our phones, we will record fragments of the landscape—glimpses of a fluid, ever-changing landscape. Then, together, we will weave a living poem, layering personal reflection with the textures of this place, giving voice to loss, resilience, and the uncertain beauty of now. After our journey, the collected footage will be transformed into a short film, a poetic testament to the moment we shared.

Night Waking

Night Waking

31 Oct 2025 - 31 Oct 2025

AN TOBAR AND MULL THEATRE presents the WORLD PREMIERE of by Shireen Mula, adapted from the novel by Sarah Moss Directed by Rebecca Atkinson-Lord A remote Scottish island. A sleep-deprived mother. A grave you were never meant to find. Anna Bennett should be writing a book. Instead, she’s counting the minutes of lost sleep, peeling a toddler off her leg, and Googling ‘Victorian infanticide’ at 3 a.m. Her ornithologist husband is out studying puffins, oblivious. Her sons are running feral. And when she and her eldest uncover something in the garden—something small, something wrapped in wool—it becomes clear that history isn’t just a thing she studies. It’s here. Underfoot. And it won’t rest quietly. NIGHT WAKING is a sharp, strange, and darkly funny exploration of motherhood, colonialism, and the ghosts we inherit. As Anna ricochets between present-day exhaustion, historical letters, and a past that won’t stay buried, she is forced to confront what it means to nurture, to protect, and to fail. Adapted from Sarah Moss’s novel by Shireen Mula, this one-woman play is a feat of acting virtuosity—a fragmented, fevered journey through sleepless nights, long-lost voices, and the things that won’t stay hidden. For anyone who has ever craved silence but feared what might fill it. Age guidance: 12+ Running time: 2 hours plus interval.
