A reimagining of the famous bothy ballad, Bogie’s Bonnie Belle, which deals with farm life, class and love but never from the perspective of the titular Belle.
Told entirely in Doric, the native dialect spoken in the North East of Scotland, this unique and easy-to-follow spoken word performance by Lucy Beth unveils Isabelle’s story. A young woman impregnated against her will, ostracised as an unmarried mother and separated from her son, Isabelle’s resilience is marked by her strength and triumph over adversity.
