Description

The Highlands of Scotland, filled with misty moors and glens, rolling fields of heather and ghosts from Scottish history, invite mystical ruminations, kindle existential questions and spark the imagination to soar into higher and uncharted territory. Join Paul O’Brien, and Bonnie Prince Charlie, in the telling of one man’s story of loss and discovery as he searches for mystery, meaning and a lost wallet in the Highlands of Scotland.

This is pure storytelling, Paul’s clear and animated performance style beautifully animates not only his own story but some Scottish history that was completely new to me. The performance is funny, thought provoking and deeply sentimental. This was a lucky find and I would recommend to anyone from Scotland or from elsewhere in the world.
