South Lanarkshire Leisure and Culture

The Hilarious new play from Phil Differ featuring Bruce Morton and Raymond Mearns.

Pat and Danny are two Celtic supporting childhood pals now in their early seventies, older men who view life through a green and white prism. They live in the past, they resent everyone under thirty and manage to find negatives in everything their team achieves. They are what’s disparagingly known as Celtic Da’s.

A recent health scare results in Pat experiencing a lapse in his football fanaticism and a stark re-evaluation of a lifetime spent as a Celtic fan.

A confused Danny cannot understand his pal’s sudden mood swing and gradually their long-standing match day routine becomes the backdrop to a darkly comedic discourse where they both come to question their Celtic-mindedness, their politics, their hopes, dreams, fears, values and above all else, their evolution from young and gallus into Celtic Da’s.

Lanark Memorial Hall was officially opened on 29 April 1926 by General Sir Ian Hamilton, G.B.C. with a crowd of over 2000 witnessing the proceedings. So, exactly 100 years to the day, we invite you to come along and join us for our 100th Birthday Bash concert.

The concert will be our very own Eras Tour, celebrating the music through the decades of the venue, starting in the 1920, through the Big Band Era and the war years to the  heyday of the classic musicals, the swinging Sixties and Rock ‘n’ Roll era and onwards through more recent decades of the various eras of popular music – right through to the chart toppers in 2026!!

We envisage the night being not only a celebration for our loyal customers and the local community to get involved in, but also one huge big sing-along to lots of your favourite hits through the years.
