The iconic political play was a huge success at the Re pin September when it smashed box office records.

It will once again be performed in Dundee, from August 31 until September 10, before embarking on a Scottish tour which will be its first profession­al tour for more than 20 years.

The play was written by renowned British playwright, director and political theorist John McGrath.
