A History of Scotland

This kids' show was a definite success.  Three comic actors presented the entire history of Scotland in a little under 60 minutes. They had a handful of songs (but not too many), some running up and down the aisle, lots of pretend squabbling between the actors, and a couple of witches hunting though the audience for a child to put in their potion.   Along the way we had the Romans, Picts, Scots and Vikings; all the kings and queens from Kenneth McAlpine to James VII; the highland clearances and the industrial revolution; and great Scottish inventors.  Which sounds suspiciously close to the primary school syllabus.  I was good fun for kids and grown-ups.

It's billed as being for five-year-olds and over, but I reckon it's better for seven-years-olds and older.
