I remember going to this and liking it a lot at the time but details are vague now. It's about soldiers and it was staged in a sports hall rather than a theatre with audience on two sides of a long performance area. There's credits in the programme for movement and video so I imagine it was big and physical. There's also a long list of credits for music. A few years earlier it had won an Olivier award. I've not had much experience with the National Theatre of Scotland (unsurprisingly as I'm in England) but the ones I have had were a triumph.
