Jamie the Saxt
is the story of King James VI – James I to the English – before he
became the first monarch of the United Kingdoms on the death of Queen
Elizabeth I. Young Jamie Stewart is shown as a statesman who, in spite
of the threats to the crown, his own life, and the stability of the
state, manages to triumph through an unheroic combination of luck,
folly, tenacity and cunning. As the Act of Union is called into question
by the SNP's victory in the Scottish parliament, the play is also a
unique opportunity to see where the Union really began.
Cast includes John Wark (Jamie)
