Fleeto - a cutting edge look at knife crime

Knives, young men and gangs - not your average night out at the theatre, but Fleeto is not your average show.

Director Paddy Cunneen throws his audience into the dark world of gang culture and, there, forces them to confront the disturbing issues surrounding violence and vulnerable young men.

His story is set in 21st century Glasgow, but is drawn from a tale almost 3000 years old - proof that we're not the first generation to face the distressing reality of mob mentality. The Iliad is a long way from Glasgow, but its themes of warring young men and its use of verse are mirrored closely in Cunneen's work.

Gritty and real, this is a profoundly moving piece of theatre and unlike anything we've staged at Perth before.

It's on for only one night and sure to make an impact on all who see it.
