Rhinestone Cowboy

Following on from acclaimed performances in Edinburgh, The Rhinestone Cowboy is a brand-new play written and performed by Leith-based poet Hjarta and co-produced with musician Harry Bongo. This darkly humorous, raw and emotive one-woman show charts the life of a young man’s tumultuous journey from Scotland to Iceland. Featuring a pulsating electronic score with music from contemporary Scottish and Icelandic artists, diverse original sound design, and bold visual projections, the production delivers a visceral, high-octane backdrop to capture a chameleon-like life with a sharp focus. “An unflinching portrait […] a moving experience” ★★★★ – The Herald Produced by a real-life mother and son duo
