We are excited to announce that Right Lines has been shortlisted for an Arts & Business Award for our collaboration with SEPA on Rapid Departure – in 2 categories!

Innovation sponsored by Black Light

This category recognises a partnership that by combining the expertise and resources of both partners has resulted in the development of pioneering and transformative digital, technological, artistic or educational output for the cultural organisation.

People

This category recognises a partnership that has used the power of culture to engage with and educate people in Scotland’s communities, evidencing the contribution that culture can make to improve health, wellbeing, confidence and quality of life.

We are very pleased to announce that Creative Scotland has  awarded Right Lines funding to collaborate with Glasgow based band Randolph’s Leap! Over the next few months, we will be working with band lyricist Adam Ross to research and develop a new theatre show. With luck (and a few more funding applications…) this will lead to the first ever Scottish indie-pop juke box musical!

Audience Feedback on Be Silent or Be Killed –

“A very moving experience.  A powerful story which drew us in completely.  Both frightening and thought-provoking.  Nothing can beat live theatre with such professional actors and writers.  Fantastic!” 5 *****

“MORRISON’S VAN” – OUT NOW!

Morrison’s Van is an online Highland whodunit set in the murky world of mobile retail.  Dod Morrison has taken on a reluctant work experience student and is all set to pass on his wealth of experience in the travelling grocery business.  But the first visit of the day to his most loyal customer Dot Cunningham is not the usual banter and barter…  How could she have fallen?  Or perhaps what could have befallen her…?

Morrison’s Van – episode 1.  Thursday 1st December 2011.  Visit www.northings.com

Excerpts from our Press Release…

“With this new production, we are definitely following a route not previously travelled.  It’s an online radio serial which will be released in four parts on consecutive days: 1st – 4th December 2011.”

“We have developed a strong following in Scotland with our comedy productions which have toured extensively across the country.  However, this time we thought we would extend the service by bringing our comedy products right into people’s homes.  Hopefully folk will enjoy this personal touch!  Of course, Morrison’s Van also gives us the opportunity to develop a world-wide audience for the first time.”

Recorded at Findhorn’s Acorn Audio Studio, the four-parter stars Right Lines regulars Ron Emslie (Whisky Kisses, Watching Bluebottles, Who Bares Wins), Helen Mackay (Accidental Death), Jackie Goode (Illicit, Great Tartan Haggis of Tooriebrochan) and Garry Collins (Tooriebrochan and who recently starred in Blood From a Stone.) Elgin actor Morna Young joins the company for the first time.  Morrison’s Van has been funded by HIE and HI-Arts and will be launched on the Northings website – www.northings.com

If you are unable to “attend” the world premiere of Morrison’s Van on 1st December, worry not.  The serial, written by Euan Martin and Dave Smith and directed by James Bryce, will be available to download at any time following the initial release dates.

All episodes are available via the links below.  Simply copy the link and paste into your browser.
Morrison’s Van is also available to download from itunes absolutely free!  Just go to itunes, click on Podcast section, enter Morrison’s Van in the search box and all episodes should appear.  Select each episode and download to your PC, Mac, ipad, ipod, laptop or smartphone!

Morrison’s Van is the final section of the Hi-Wireless project which has been running since June 2011.  Thanks to funding from Highland Council’s Literature Fund, Right Lines curated a new writing project for online radio plays.   Five Highland writers were commissioned to deliver five 10 minute radio plays.  These were all recorded at Acorn Audio Studio, Findhorn and released online monthly. All five plays are still available to listen to and download.
