A SCOTTISH actor and director is getting back on stage and is set to visit Helensburgh this weekend.

After two years filming David Hayman is set to reprise a successful character to look at where Scotland stands now. Bob Cunningham, protagonist of The Pitiless Storm, a one-man show written by Chris Dolan which toured extensivelyin the run up to 2014's Referendum.

It's two years after the independence referendum and Bob has stuff on his mind. Whether or not to take early retirement and why Ethel, his ex, who hasn't been around for 20 years has suddenly resurfaced. Then, there's politics, and what to do about the no vote, Corbyn and Brexit.

The Cause of Thunder, again written by Chris Dolan, is set to tour Scotland in February and March. It is directed by David Hayman Jr (David’s son) and produced by FairPley.

David Hayman said: "Bob is a storyteller. In The Cause of Thunder he’s telling his own story – and asking where he (and each of us) stands. Is his life’s work done? Is he finished? Can he come to terms with his, and his country’s, past, and future? "

The Cause of Thunder opened in Oban on February 1 and travelled across Scotland. The play took to the stage in Clydebank Town Hall on February 7 and will show in Helensburgh's Victoria Halls this Sunday, February 19 from 7.30pm until 9.30pm. Tickets cost £14 for adults and £12 for concessions.

Tickets can be purchased from the Victoria Halls by calling the box office on 01436673275 or via eventbrite.
