Càit An Dèan Mi Mo Nead?

Càit An Dèan Mi Mo Nead? (Where Will I Make My Nest?) is inspired by a traditional gaelic poem about a hen looking for a place to make a nest . Set in the small crofting community of Assynt (in NW Sutherland, Scotland ), the story interweaves the modern and ancient. Seordag is a metal hen with a TV set body. On her quest to find a place to make her nest, Seordag encounters Soley;a helpful seagull, Blarag;a cow-fiddle, Ewella; an accordian sheep, a talking cement mixer and Marlene, the hardy crofter. Seordags' new friends help her to make a fabulous hen house where she lays three eggs. They hatch into mobile phone chicks and they have a grand ceilidh.
