‘I could write a book about it’ A one man show by Owen O’Neill

Owen O’Neill, master of the one-man show, is back!

Straight from Edinburgh Festival Fringe to Pittenweem - for one performance only!

Pittenweem New Town Hall, Session Street KY10 2QL
Sunday 9th August 2026
3pm - 4.30

If you ever wanted to write a book… this is the show for you…and if you’ve never wanted to write a book, you certainly won’t after seeing this…
The book he’s talking about: Tom Joad and Me
A carnivalesque rockabilly narrative. - Patrick McCabe
A raw and lively tale. Tender and hilarious. - Phil Jupitus
A gem of a book - Glenn Paterson.
The writer and performer:
O’Neill is never anything less than an excellent intelligent writer. - The Stage
O’Neill’s writing manages to be earthy, humane and surreal with an acute sense of the absurd. - The Scotsman

BYOB.
