The Journey is a theatre play inspired by some of the concepts of The Divine Comedy, which is a long narrative poem written by Italian poet Dante Alighieri in the early 1300.

One day everything is fine, the next you find yourself "drawn away from home"! That is the situation that I found myself in after working at home for twenty-odd years. Yes, I had been away a few days here, a week there, but things were all about to change. Circumstances were about to take me further a-field, out of commuting distance, off to other countries, away from family and friends, away from a much loved Montrose Football Club. Departing into the unknown I had a wife who could not see me off from the railway station- we had never been parted- two boys who acted as though they weren't really bothered, but I could see the look on their faces.
