We’re a punk band. A politically motivated Marxist punk band thit waants tae bring doun the rich by any means necessary!
It’s 1978. Unemployment and violence darken every Glasgow close; Scotland have been knocked out of the World Cup; Grease is at the top of the charts and seminal Scottish punk band The Jaggy Nettles are imploding.
The Jaggy Nettles will be reuniting on stage to perform brand new punk-inspired songs, keeping the spirit of ‘78 alive.
Whatever Happened to the Jaggy Nettles? redefines young punks of the 1970s as naive, asexual, idealistic, poetic, wonderful and doomed. It is a play about empowerment and feeling the future is there to be changed; a story as relevant today as ever.
This edition was published to coincide with the February 2020 run at Scottish Youth Theatre.
