It’s Not Where You Start…” is a powerful exploration of memory, resilience, and belonging. Drawing on his lived experience — from spending time in care as a child to becoming a foster carer — Kyle gives voice to stories often left unheard.
Blending heartfelt poetry with striking comic book-style projections, this is storytelling that is both intimate and visually unforgettable. It’s a tribute to the past, a reckoning with the present, and a timely call for compassion as the UK care system faces increasing scrutiny.
Winner of the Stage Award for Acting Excellence, Scott Kyle delivers a must-see performance filled with honesty, humanity, and hope.
'The story of how Scott Kyle went from being a latch-key kid on the streets of Rutherglen to an award-winning actor starring alongside Hollywood Icon Harrison Ford is both highly amusing and incredibly inspirational.' Paul Kelbie, Discover Scotland Magazine
