'en-GB': `
<i>Michael: A Ballad Play in Scots</i> 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.
</p>
<p>
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.
