Details

The Dogstone along with Nasty, Brutish and Short makes up a double-bill of two short plays that look into the darker side of Scottish families. Andy Duffy’s Nasty, Brutish and Short finds two brothers, Jim and Luke, holed up in a Glasgow flat. No job, no money and it looks like the only things on offer are all bad. As the options start to run out, Jim takes what isn’t his and sets the two brothers on a collision course.
