Rowan Tree Theatre Company's contribution to this year's Festival of the Horse is a light-hearted compilation that draws together some of the equine songs, stories and ballads that have become a part of their repertoire over the years. Revel in John Buchan's story of the exploits of the reiver Gideon Scott and his "coal black mare", soften your heart with Robert Burns' New Year greeting to his old and faithful companion Maggie; tap your feet to the many fiddle tunes that celebrate horses and enjoy from Hilary Bell, John Nichol and Lucy Cowan who capture for you the magic hold of the horse on the life and imagination of Borderers throughout the centuries and up to the present day.
