Elaine C Smith is one of Scotland’s most popular performers. For over 30 years she has worked extensively in radio, television, film, and theatre starring in numerous iconic television comedy series such as City Lights (BBC Scotland). She is perhaps best known to many for her enduring portrayal of Mary Nesbitt in ten series of the BBC2 hit sitcom Rab C Nesbitt though it seems that has been eclipsed recently by her hilarious character Christine in the hugely successful BBC comedy Two Doors Down for which she won a Bafta in 2019.
Alan Bissett is a novelist, playwright and performer from Falkirk, who now lives in Lochwinnoch. His most well-known works are his novels Boyracers and Death of a Ladies' Man, as well as his series of 'one-woman shows', The Moira Monologues, which have been touring Scotland since 2009. He previously worked with Elaine C Smith when she starred in his play, The Pure, the Dead and the Brilliant in 2014.
