Moving and captivating stories from word weavers and an interesting new take on Frankenstein. In years to come expectations will no doubt be mounted so make a film. Very nice atmosphere at this Play Fest.
Wonderful! The family day at Duns Castle was magical and really sparked imaginations. Brilliant gigs. Thank you.
Absolutely beautiful, family friendly festival. Duns Volly Hall was turned into a gorgeous, seductive little cave-we saw wonderful acts. Bravo!
Finding Mary - Fantastic acting, wonderful play. Incredibly moving. It resonated with the human spirit, the call for adventure and re-birth, yet the fears of being outside your comfort zone.
Great to have so much choice.
Informative, fun, everyone is very welcoming.
