Flight is a play that uses 200 miniature model scenes to tell the compelling story of two Afghan boys travelling across Europe to seek refuge in the UK after the death of their parents. It’s a unique audience experience and it’s on now at the Citizens Theatre in Glasgow. Co-director Candice Edmunds tells Zara more.

Travelling Gallery is an art gallery in a bus that for almost 50 years has been serving communities across the country. Curator Louise Briggs talks about the latest exhibition showing in the gallery, one which explores our relationship with technology and the internet.

And Zara will be be hearing about a concert taking place on Sunday in Edinburgh that’s the culmination of a five-year residency between the Scottish Chamber Orchestra and participants based in the Craigmillar area of the city, many of whom had no previous musical experience.
