A young woman looking very worried, about to cry.

The Big Story - 26 January 2010

On the left is a woman in a blonde wig and a black dress. She is holding a bunch of flowers behind her head as if she's going to throw them down. Sketched over the picture, on her dress is a red heart. Just behind her sits a man in a black suit with blue tie. Sketched around his face are blue circles, drawn in crayon.

Pull up a chair, take a place beside the fire and get comfortable, as BAC begins a season of work devoted to the age old art of storytelling.

Highlights include ‘RETURN’ by Polarbear, The Poof Downstairs by Jon Haynes, Little Bulb Theatre's Sporadical and If That’s All There Is, one of the sell out highlights of Edinburgh Festival 2009, from Inspector Sands.
