Publisher's summary

Based on the historical record of Bessie’s "confession" to witchcraft in 16th-century Scotland, the episodic structure of the play shows the many characters and events that supposedly made up the catalogue of her crimes, but which in fact testify to her innocence and goodness. Bessie Dunlop, the Witch o Dalry introduces students to different levels and varieties of Scots and English and contains teaching notes, suggestions for classroom activities, and questions for discussion or writing.

The original version of Bessie Dunlop, the Witch o Dalry was written by John Hodgart and Martin Clarke in 1977. Hodgart rewrote the play for an EIS Drama competition before revising it again for Hodder and Staunton who published it as a school text in 1995. This 2021 shorter edition is the fourth version of the play.

Full cast of narrators includes: Alister Sim, Steven Richmond, Ronnie Guffie, Drew Young, James Dippie, Kenzie Sharkey, Kate Connell, Dale McFadzean, Cameron Seaward, Mark Thomson, Jacqueline Carson, Lorna Manson, Steven Reid, John Hodgart, Alex Hope, Drew Young, Ronnie Guffie, Steven Richmond, Alistair Sim, Donald Reid, Willie Wallace, Alex Findlay, Jennifer Harkins, Mari-Clare Turnbull, Julie Wales, Hazel Wylie, Eilidh May Hill.
