The Beautiful Game with the Hampden Collection Makars

Join Julie McNeill, Gaffer of The Hampden Collection and Poet in Residence at St Mirren FC; Donna Matthew, Makar for the Scottish Women’s National Team Poetry Society; and Hugh McMillan, Makar for the Scottish Men’s National Team Collection, to celebrate the lost heroes of Scottish football. With humour, care and the beating heart of three diehard fans, these talented writers bring to life untold stories and take the audience on a walk down memory lane. A celebration of social stories, sporting stories, and women’s stories, as well as how working-class communities in Scotland were shaped, this is a joyous look at the icons who shaped the beautiful game.
