  description: {
    'en-GB': `
      _Michael: A Ballad Play in Scots_ by William Hershaw is based on the character of Michael Scot of Balwearie, the 12th-century philosopher, translator, polymath, alchemist and reputed wizard. Hershaw has combined the historical and folk myth aspects of the Michael Scot legend to create a gripping portrayal of a troubled soul who attempts to destroy the universe in order to prove the existence of God.<br>
      
      Written in lively and accessible Scots, the play takes Scottish drama to new places by placing a cast of devils and historical figures (including Robert Burns and Jimmy Shand) in the setting of traditional ballads and folklore. The result is a tragic but life-affirming tale brimful with dark humour, magic, horror and contemporary relevance.

      _Originally published as a book in 2016_
