How strong would your love be when life events change everything?
Meet the Gourley family. They are dealing with situations we all recognise: parenting, teenagers, school, career, dreams, relationships, and plans for the future.
Then life throws a grenade spiralling them into a situation no one expected. A thought provoking, uplifting drama framed with humour and music.

About TRAM Direct
TRAM Direct has been in existence since 1994. It is a company limited by guarantee and is a Scottish Charity. Funders have included various local Councils, Big Lottery, Awards for All, Scottish Arts Council, Private Companies and others.
TRAM is involved in Theatre in Education projects, Re-enactments of Historical moments in history and Promenade productions in parks and graveyards. The company has worked alongside youth theatres and has offered training to young people wishing to pursue a career within the performing arts, often allowing the young people to take that first big step of acting with professional actors.
As a company we recognise the commitment, talent, generosity and hard work put in by all who work with TRAM. We hope that their time with us leads on to greater challenges and perhaps offers a chance to fulfil some lifetime ambitions within the arts.
