From his humble beginnings in Alloway to world-wide fame, Burns is the most translated poet in the world with his works in approximately 60 languages. He was also a prolific songwriter and collector with over 300 credited to him. This show features a hugely experienced performer delivering his most popular works in a genuine unadorned style, with tasteful guitar accompaniment interspersed with humour and slides to match. You will hear such classic songs as A Man’s A Man, Scots Wha Hae, Ae Fond Kiss and his best-loved poems including Tam O' Shanter and To a Mouse.
