00:00Shanti, can I go to this room next? It's not alright.
00:10And this room. Let's see what you did.
00:16And I'm going to say one, two, three and then you're going to go there.
00:19Yeah? You ready?
00:21One, two, three.
00:31Amazing.
00:34And we greeted some... Amazing!
00:37I think all of these animals would be absolutely pleased to be greeted by all of your paws.
00:42Maybe not absolutely, because I saw you got... What happened to you?
00:45I got bitten.
00:46You got bitten by the visiting paws.
00:48Lovely group. Can I have us in a circle, please?
00:51Come and sit down.
00:53Can I spark you?
01:07Mallory, I'm going to come to you first, if you don't mind.
01:09Can you tell us a bit about Pig Heart Boy?
01:12Okay.
01:14Well, Pig Heart Boy is about... And he has a bad heart.
01:17He caught a viral infection and it's damaged his heart.
01:20And he knows he needs a heart transplant.
01:22So, a pioneering doctor who says, yes, I can give your son a heart, but it will be from a genetically modified pig.
01:28So, Cameron, wanting to live, decides he's going to go through with it.
01:32He's going to have his heart.
01:33Thinking his life will then go back to normal.
01:35It's important. It's crucial. It's vital.
01:38Fantastic.
01:40Let's go to our creative associates.
01:42I love that title.
01:44Can you tell us, what does a creative associate do?
01:48Hello.
01:49Hello.
01:50I like your hair colour.

01:53So, you've enjoyed it, have you?
01:54Yeah.
01:55Yeah. It's been good fun coming to Fife.
01:57Yeah.
01:58Oh, that's great. Have you seen the play as well?
02:01Yeah.
02:02Yeah. Have you enjoyed it?
02:04Yeah.
02:05It was brilliant, wasn't it?
02:06Hello.
02:07Hi.
02:08Hello.
02:09So, you've been involved in giving a heart.
02:12Yeah.
02:13What do you love about it?
02:16All the awareness, the play and stuff.
02:21I hope everyone thinks the same.
02:24Fantastic.
02:26Well, I think it's been nice to be able to have a room full of heart today.
02:30Anyway, I'm sure it's giving us people.
02:33I'm really enjoying it.
02:35And food for thought, I hope.
02:37Yeah.
02:38Absolutely. Food for thought.
02:39Well, that's what you want, obviously.
02:41Brilliant.
02:42Anyway, I look forward to seeing you then.
02:44Hello.
02:45Hello.
02:46How are you?
02:47Did you enjoy doing that?
02:48Yeah.
02:49Did you enjoy giving your advice?
02:50Yeah.
02:51That's very important, isn't it?
02:53And everybody listens to it too.
02:55Well, thank you very much.
02:57Have you seen the play?
02:59We thought of the concepts within the play.
03:03And then we thought, oh, what if this happens?
03:08And we just did little details.
03:11Little details help, don't they?
03:13Yeah.
03:14Brilliant.
03:15Didn't make it, did you?
03:16No.
03:17No.
03:18It looks as if it's had a lot of expert people working it.
03:21So you enjoyed doing this too?
03:23Yes.
03:24Good fun.
03:25Yes.
03:26So have you ever acted?
03:27Because you're all going to have different ideas.
03:28Yeah.
03:29Yeah.
03:30But it's obviously helped the people putting on the play.
03:31Hugely.
03:32So, yeah, it's really influenced how the production team have made the show
03:36and how they've explored the characters and the journey of the story.
03:41We came to see the first preview, some of you, didn't you?
03:44Brilliant.
03:45Both of you.
03:46Well, thank you very much.
03:48It's really nice to meet you.
03:50And I think that's it.
03:52Thank you very much.
03:56Thank you so much.
03:58I've been punished.
