The adaptation to theater seems more atractive than the long novel plenty of detailes and often boring descripcions, still we must remember that when the year it was written society was so much different in it's discrimination towards "free" women called "whores" as Roxana herself😢

I've just finished the novel "Roxana" written by Daniel Defoe exactly 300 years ago and found this theater versión amazing! Is there more information about this play, please? 😮

Lived in Paisley all my life. The destruction of the town centre is an absolute disgrace and those "elected" custodians of the town should be ashamed of themselves. This includes the council, Black and Newlands. The once thriving High Street is now more than a plethora of bargain shops, Payday loan establishments and empty units. Taking a walk through the Paisley Centre is akin to a scene from 28 Days Later.

I recall Calum, from Defiant Pose, asking us if they could put in a concert at their school Assembly Hall - Merksworth High. I said that if we can convince the Jannie - John McAusland - we would think about it. John was up for it, so Calum and his band and another couple of local bands had their first live performance at Merksworth. A great night and not a bit of bother. I even did a promo article for Defiant Pose, claiming they had supported Sex Pistols in London. Happy times.

I remember the Two teachers called Mrs farqquarson. One was large and the other small. I started on the first day. Certainly neverb had a blazer or a tie. We were the poor one’s but were all treated the same. Remember the headmaster, Mr McNeil. Great “Heidie”. Known as Susan Lee then.

Today I went into the town hall just after 1500 to help selling tickets before a great show by Paisley Sinfonia, I was stood alone just at the side of the town hall as the clock played Highland Cathedral, I didn’t know the chimes had been fixed and being 35 had no memory of them…that blew me away The town hall is looking fantastic inside aswell, credit to all involved in restoring it

I just wanted to say, this is an excellent production! I've just submitted in my final essay on Roxana and watching this play helped my crystallise my ideas and gave me a better understanding of the text itself. And it's so wonderfully acted too! I felt the visceral reactions of both women and their struggle and frustration chilled me to the bone. "Did you think you can save me from my time? Because you cannot. I cannot." Those words guided my reading of this complex and intricate text, in fact, the whole ending scene was a masterclass in both its craft and its performance. Thank you for this performance, for allowing Roxana's story to live and breathe on, continuing to challenge and inspire us.

Absolutely great to see the Renfrew victory baths still open , myself, my father and grandfather use to go to the baths on a weekend, myself born in Paisley and brought up in Barrhead, now in 60 and living down in the Cotswolds and reminiscing on the past, I had great times with my family and visiting the baths regularly, I love the fact that the individual cubicles are still there, next time I’m up in Scotland I would love to revisit the baths , thank you for a detailed video of the history, many thanks , Mitchell
