Established in Glasgow in 2004, A Play, A Pie and A Pint begins its new season this week.

A publican and a theatre director walked into a bar. What resulted wasn't a joke, but a theatrical phenomenon.

But it has also helped new writers get a foothold in the industry, like Liam Moffat, whose play Jack opens the new season this week. "'And Alfred Hitchcock said the length of a film should be directly related to the endurance of the human bladder. That's why Colin Beattie and I started a play a pie and a pint'."The first show was a play called Hieroglyphics by Anne Donovan, author of Buddha Da. It was her first stage play."It was upstairs in the main auditorium where the artist Alasdair Gray was working on his mural," she says.

"It was waiter service when it first started and everyone came and sat at long trestle tables and they were served their pie and It took time when it was busy," Linda says. Those involved in the shows also liked the challenge of creating a 50-minute show with limited resources and rehearsals.She says: "You've got to get what basically is a full play into a fifty minute timeframe.

"Being a fairly established playwright in Iceland and having no difficulty in getting something staged, this was tricky," he says.
