SCOTTISH singer-songwriter Horse McDonald is to take her award-winning one-woman play Careful on the road for a Scottish spring tour.

First performed at the Edinburgh Fringe in 2016, the autobiographical story of her triumph over adversity through music, was written in collaboration with writer and comedian Lynn Ferguson, directed by Maggie Kinloch and produced by The Gilded Balloon.

It will tour to 18 venues throughout Scotland from March 16 to May 27 including Giffnock, Dunkeld, Musselburgh, Dundee, Stirling, Inverness, Peebles, Greenock, Motherwell, Kirkcaldy, Edinburgh, Falkirk, Paisley, Aberdeen, Cove, Ayr, Wick and Glasgow.

After each performance, Horse will be joined on stage by Kinloch for an intimate question-and-answer session. She will also weave into the second half of the evening a small selection of her favourite songs, prompted by the audience questions.

Careful has been described as “haunting, compelling, candid and fearless”.
