With a policy of low pricing and accessibility for all, the Citizens Theatre has always been Glasgow's true community venue. It actively encourages and educates people to come back to the theater, offering a wide-ranging program of classics and new plays, although they generally take the summer off. The main theater is a beautiful Victorian auditorium, built in 1878 and seating approximately 600. Two smaller studio theaters were created in 1992. The resident theater company, The Citizens' Company, was formed in 1943 and has since gained a reputation for taking a challenging approach in an individual style. You are always welcome and dress code is not an issue. Keep your eyes peeled for ghostly apparitions as the theater is said to be haunted by a green lady, a manager who leapt to her death from the upper circle.

Craignaw

Craignaw, Newton Stewart, Royaume-Uni, DG8 6SU

At the centre of the Galloway Hills found in the Southern Uplands of Scotland stands the hill of Craignaw. The rocky granite hill is unusual in its area because of its peculiarly rocky and steep summit. Part of its northern terrain is called 'Deil's Bowlin' Green' which consists of granite slabs sprinkled at random with round boulders of granite. This natural phenomenon is believed to be the result of a glacial transformation, possibly glacial erratics. Towards the west of the summit stands a memorial dedicated to the two US Airforce pilots who were flying the F-111E Aardvark that crashed here on December 19, 1979. Aircraft debris are still found around the site. The hill is popular for trekking, rock-climbing and especially for ice climbing.
