Be the first to see Rowan Tree Theatre Company’s exciting new production - Hermiston at Bowhill Theatre.

Hermiston is the story of a tumultuous relationship between a father and son, a story of justice, passion, intrigue and murder. While revolution burns in France, a tyrannical hanging judge, Lord Hermiston, confronts his liberal son Archie in a small Borders town, under the watchful eye of their housekeeper, Kirstie.  Hermiston sees himself as standing for Scotland and a glorious past.  His son sees himself as standing for internationalism and a bright new future.  But are they as different as they seem?

Written and Directed by John Carnegie and adapted from Robert Louis Stevenson’s classic unfinished masterpiece, Weir of Hermiston, Hermiston features Michael Mackenzie in his return to Rowan Tree as Lord Hermiston, young Borders actor Grant O’Rourke as his son, Archie, and Isabella Jarrett as Kirstie Elliot.
