Black Watch
In the autumn of 2004, 800 members of the storied Scots regiment, the Black Watch, shipped out for Iraq. Their mission: to replace 4,000 American Marines. The story of their experience is told in this shattering play, inspired by interviews with members of the regiment upon their return to Scotland.
Brilliantly utilizing sound, lighting, and video, spoken word, tightly choreographed movement, and searing stagecraft, Black Watch engulfs the audience in the experience of the war—and ushers us into the hearts of the young men who willingly went, valiantly fought, and returned to sort out the aftermath of the war on terror.
Premiered at the 2006 Edinburgh Festival, Black Watch drew an overwhelming critical response, sweeping theater awards in the United Kingdom, and then played New York and Los Angeles to a chorus of praise.
Now you can see this unforgettable work of theater. On the floor of the Scope Arena, you will be seated within striking distance of the action on the stage— and as part of an intimate audience, you will discover what critics have called a "landmark cultural event of the 21st century" (Sunday Herald, Scotland).
