The Black Watch by
This past Saturday, I was fortunate enough to see the National Theatre of Scotland's production of "Black Watch" by Gregory Burke at the Shakespeare Theater Company in Washington, DC., at the end of the production's run as the company starts a US tour.
The play was extraordinary. I would highly recommend this play to anyone.
There's an excellent sequence that briefly outlines some of the history of the Black Watch, complete with drill-like costume changes that show the different uniforms throughout the Regiment's near-300-year history. See also the end of the sequence.
There is a serialized version of the play on YouTube, but if you get the chance, please go see this play in person.

Reason: left out the author's name, and he deserves the credit!
