Tom Brogan, co-founder of Short Attention Span Theatre, said, "We're really pleased to be working again with Cumbernauld Theatre. Our previous shows at the wonderful Lanternhouse venue have been really popular and we can’t wait for audiences to experience our latest productions.

“It’s a chance for people to see a host of brand new plays for less than the price of many tickets at the Fringe.

"Not only is it great value, it's a fantastic way to support grassroots theatre and a chance for audiences to enjoy a magical mix of comedy, drama and thought-provoking themes in the local community.

"Tickets are selling fast so I'd advise everyone to book now to avoid disappointment."
