Description

Can a man find his purpose when he grows older and all the major life events come thick and fast? Should he retire to the solitude of The Shed and escape from the world, or get out and try something new? When familiar rules no longer apply, is it too late to change the habits of a lifetime? Inspired by the work of the Scottish Men's Sheds Association, Man Shed is a one-man theatre piece by Right Lines Productions which explores the joy of sheds, the pain of loss and the comfort of friendship.

The Man Shed was a powerful drama that has the ability to evoke many emotions and which leaves a lasting impression. Throughout this one man show the actor Ron Emslie delivered an emotional performance that took us on a journey through life, the many hopes we all have. It is a must see show.
