Book now to see Miss Lindsay's Secret at Heart of Hawick on 25 November - read more and get your tickets here. https://t.co/rcFffqHPTr

Live Theatre at Heart of Hawick.

A curator has found, in her museum, a hidden box of letters, from a young Scotsman, gone to the Klondike Goldrush. He writes to his childhood sweetheart, Minnie Lindsay, a seamstress, left behind in their glen in the early 1900s.

[Live Borders MGA @LiveBordersMGA]

She decides to reveal the letters’ content and, in doing so, carries the audience with her into the two worlds of a close-knit early 20th century glen community and the heady exploits of Canada’s famous goldrush.

The legendary #SirJackieStewart visited the #JimClarkMotorsportMuseum on Monday for the first time since he opened the Museum back in 2019 😍

With the opening so busy, Sir Jackie said he never got a chance to properly go around the Museum.

What an honour for our staff 👌
