THE GHOST SHOW

Saturday 6 December, 1.00pm - 3.00pm
Before the arrival of the internet and pay-per-view TV people went looking for fun and entertainment, and few things were as popular as the Shows or the local picture house. The Ghost Show brings these two together in this special screening. You’ll enjoy some of the earliest films ever shown in Scotland and learn how Showground pioneers such as Victor Biddall, Harry Kemp and George Green made Scots love the movies. You will also see how filmmakers have captured Scots enjoying themselves at fairs and public holidays across the decades, and hear the recollections of the Travelling Showpeople who made them happen. Toffee apples and goldfish not included! This screening will be presented by Ghost Show Researcher Mitch Miller who will also take part in a Q&A afterwards.
Cost: £4.80/£3.20 concession
