Tam Lin Retold written and performed by Corinne Harrigan with music by award-winning singer and multi-instrumentalist Nick Hart
Inspired by the well-known Scots/English border Ballad of Tam Lin,this piece of contemporary storytelling performance is orally told and underscored by live acoustic music. In this way we respond to the moment we’re in with the audience. We make our way into the greenwood together.
The ballad may be known as Tam Lin, but he’s only a part of it. Described by audiences as ‘joyous’, ‘refreshing’ and ‘bold’, Tam Lin Retold recentres unsung voices in Scots/English folklore. Enchanting and sharp in equal measure, this is badass border balladry for the old and the new.
