All is revealed, almost literally, in the one-act stage comedy, The Monk of St Anthony.
Set in the Edinburgh port of Leith during the mid-16th century, the story is adapted from one of Wilson’s Tales of the Borders by Robert Sproul-Cran and performed by Duns Players.
It is being performed at 7.30pm on Wednesday, May 1 as one of the highlights of this year’s DunsPlayFest (April 26-May 4, Duns Volunteer Hall).
Tickets are available from dunsplayfest.org.uk
