Very emotional and done with dignity, humour and very emotional experience. Would of loved to of talked to the cast at the end. Very humbling. Dare I say it the cast put there whole heart and sole in to it. The main character has to be a Jambo. Well he convinced me. Could not stop thinking about it for a good few days. Can confirm. What a wonderfully written, evocative piece of art it was. It was a privilege to get to see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alfamonkey Posted August 26, 2019 Share Posted August 26, 2019 Attended this on Fri evening with wife, and 13 and 9 year old boys. They were all really engaged and even the not so academic 13 year old was reflecting a lot about WW1 after the show, delaying his inevitable return to the iphone and headphones by 10 minutes when back in the car which is as good a compliment as the show could get ! The wife said she wasn't really that up for it, but loved it in the end, as did the 9 year old. A unique and emotional story wonderfully staged, acted and produced. Well done to all involved ! Proud to be Jambos, just a pity we had to witness what happened 45 hours later through in Glasgow...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Madjambo21 Posted August 26, 2019 Share Posted August 26, 2019 Was at the 15:30 show and it was Brilliant. I'm not someone that would normally go to a play or artsy thing but my Father and I enjoyed this so much. Funny and emotional. The actors were great also. Glad I got to see this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JH-HMFC Posted August 26, 2019 Share Posted August 26, 2019 Sorry as stupid as this sounds (it's been an extremely long day) - for those that have been to this where exactly is the entrance for the show at the ground? ie is it via main stand/Gorgie etc. Have visions of me stumbling in 15 mins late after running round the stadium Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jambo2524 Posted August 26, 2019 Share Posted August 26, 2019 Puts a lot of things into perspective. Really connected with the performance. I just love Heart of Midlothian FC, an incredible story performed exceptionally well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was magnificent and all the cast were wonderful as was the setting in our marvellous stadium. What was particularly poignant was that during the scenes in the trenches with all the battlefield sound effects, the festival fireworks were also clearly heard and it just added to the whole atmosphere. Please don't let it end there. It's too good not to continue. Thought the same, fireworks added to the battle sounds. Was a great show and the actors were really good. Even the wife enjoyed it and she hates football Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad you enjoyed it Jonno me and the wife went Sunday afternoon must have been at least 60-65 in the audience very poignant especially as you say the trench part must admit a wee tear to the eye did it bring although i tried to explain to the wife that it was the smell of the brewery that caused my eyes to water lol. Everybody should watch this and the ctors were all brilliant. see you saturday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The performance was brilliant from everyone and to think back to what these brave lads, not just from Hearts, must have gone through at such a young age, was terrifying. The cast conveyed it with humour, dignity and sadness and, I have to admit, the watery eyes were never far away. Damn hay fever is bad this time of year. I really hope they can find a way to keep the play going. It's something every single Hearts fan should see. If anyone from the play is on here all I can say is a heartfelt 'Thank You'. Well said Jonno Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers for the kind words jonno... we’ve all had a very humbling experience this year with the reaction from our audiences. It’s an important story that deserves to be told and needless to say we will be back at Tynecastle at some point. We couldn’t do what we do without the support of you all... so to all of you on here who came to the play, this year or last, can I say on behalf of the cast a very heartfelt thank you!
