No need to play an instrument—just bring your ideas, your notebook, and a willingness to explore.

About the Musical OILCAN - the musical is a bold and innovative musical blending contemporary rap with traditional Scottish airs. Power, identity, and community leadership are all explored. Developed through collaborative workshops, the musical amplifies unheard voices, telling the stories of communities facing political and social challenges.  At its core, OILCAN – the musical is a platform for creative expression, where participants contribute ideas, lyrics, and scripts that may shape the final production.  This hands-on creative session blends playwriting, songwriting, and performance, introducing the core skills behind musical theatre writing.  This workshop offers a unique chance to explore storytelling through music with opportunities to get professionally published.  Through attending one of our feeder workshops, you can develop skills in musical writing, connect with a wider artistic community, and potentially see your work both published and featured in a professional production!
