Award-winning writers, Damian Barr and Michael Pedersen talk masculinity and the male tenderness that punctuates their writing (and the writing they love). Together the pair will take a deep-dive into Damian’s memoir Maggie & Me, and the journey of adapting it for stage with National Theatre of Scotland. As well as reflecting on Pedersen’s own memoir, Boy Friends, they’ll discuss Damian’s journey into writing and what the future holds for them both.
