The Ducky
Presented by the Borderline Theatre Company, The Ducky is a play about love, loss and getting older. Nothing changes in Stewarton; they should have that on the town crest. But two years is a long time in a teenager’s life. Norma Gordon has just finished her Highers and isn’t sure what to do now. If she can keep out of Trevor McGuire’s way she will consider the summer a success. Michelle Montgomery’s home from university to spend time with her dying great granny. Rab McGuire’s back from Cambridge (though no one seems to care). The council are even building a swimming pool - what was wrong with The Ducky? Everything changes. This summer, it’s sink or swim in Stewarton.
