Of all the new plays commissioned and produced by Glasgow Unity Theatre, it is really only Ena Lamont Stewart’s second play, Men Should Weep, that has retained both its reputation and a foothold within the Scottish repertoire. Since its 1982 revival by Giles Havergal for 7:84 (Scotland), Stewart’s 1947 play has been acknowledged as one of Scottish drama’s most important plays, popular and political in equal measure.
