Sweat. Breath. Opposition. Negotiation. Fear. How long can you hold on?  

Five wildly different women gather in the muddy fields of the Highland Games circuit. They are ready to compete in the obscure art of Scottish backhold wrestling. The pearls are off, influencer videos posted, imitation Gucci bag from the Barras market cast aside as they attempt to join forces, wrestling with the only thing that could stop them from taking home the championship – each other. Will their differences throw Imogen, Chantelle, Jo, Pamela and Helen’s chances of success in the mud?

Glasgow-based writer, actor and movement specialist Nat McCleary joins forces with director, performer and 'vanguard of post-modernist panto’ Johnny McKnight to create this uniquely Scottish play. 

Satirical, poignant, and dynamic, Thrown gets to grips with belonging and identity in Scotland. It will be funny, it will be loud, it will be brutal.
