The Gig at the Red Stag
With the quartet on the verge of playing their first gig, the lead singer's home-life collapses, endangering the band's dreams. From April 2013.
A series of four comic dramas following the fortunes of a jazz quartet in the remote west Highlands of Scotland by Donna Franceschild.
Robbie used to be a professional pianist, now he's a miserable music teacher who has accidentally found himself at the centre of an over-enthusiastic, amateur jazz quartet.
On the verge of playing their first gig, the lead singer's home-life spins out of control, and, with it, the hopes and dreams of her fellow musicians.
