Cora Bissett and David Greig’s life-affirming, song-filled Scottish<br />
drama returns in a new production to the <strong>Citizens</strong> <strong>Theatre</strong>.<br />
Glasgow Girls is based on the true story of seven feisty teenagers<br />
who have their lives changed forever when their school friend and<br />
her asylum-seeking family are forcibly taken from their home to<br />
be deported. The young women are galvanised to take a stand and<br />
fight for the life of their friend and, ultimately, for the rights of all<br />
children of asylum-seekers.<br />

The real Glasgow Girls’ story became one of the most powerful<br />
asylum campaigns in recent history – challenging the government,<br />
capturing the imagination of the media and inspiring a whole<br />
community to unite behind its residents.<br />
A smash hit in 2012 and 2014, don’t miss the Glasgow Girls’<br />
homecoming shows!<br />
“The most politically engaged and enraged British musical since<br />
Blood Brothers.” Express<br />
