Cora Bissett and David Greig’s life-affirming, song-filled drama based on the true story of seven feisty teenagers whose lives change forever when their school friend and her asylum-seeking family are forcibly taken from their home to be deported. The young women are galvanised to take a stand and fight for the life of their friend and, ultimately, for the rights of all children of asylum-seekers.

The real Glasgow Girls’ story became one of the most powerful asylum campaigns in recent history — challenging the government, capturing the imagination of the media and inspiring a whole community to unite behind its residents. Glasgow Girls is a potent political drama, but uses uplifting songs, music, dance and humour to tell the girls’ tale. Its universal appeal and ecstatic audience response ensured it was a massive hit at Edinburgh Fringe 2016.
