Stirring song, vivid verse, pithy prose and dainty dance commemorate the life, times and lasting influence of Scotland's most romanticized monarch. Mary Stuart has arguably inspired more music and poetry, more comment and controversy, than any other woman in Scottish history. Madeleine Taylor dons the famous heart-shaped hood, the ruff and the pearl-decked gown, takes up guitar and drum and raises voice to share the stirring songs, the vibrant verse, the pithy prose - and even a dainty dance - to acknowledge the legacy of impressions left by the extraordinary life and death of Scotland's famous lady.

Guizer is a small theatre company based in Queensferry.

Tickets are £7 or £5 for under 16s
