A SKETCH show is being performed in the Paisley chip shop of Paolo Nutini's parents as part of a festival staged in unusual venues.

The Catch of the Day show is being held in the Castelvecchi fish and chip shop, in the town’s New Street, which is owned by singing star Paolo Nutini’s mum and dad, Alfredo and Linda Nutini.

The free performance by Hannah Fox and Kate Drummond will feature tales of love, life and loss gathered by the duo during their conversations with customers for their Castelvecchi Chronicle newspaper.

And it will be a case of first come first served for the show on Thursday, May 30 at 7pm, as places in the fish and chip restaurant are limited to 40.

Alfredo Nutini is looking forward to the Catch of the Day show in his fish and chop restaurant.

“Our customers really enjoyed telling their stories,” he said. “And they were keen to share their experiences and the fond memories they have of coming the Castelvecchi.

“I told a few stories myself of my time here. My mum and dad met in the chip shop and I also met my wife, Linda when she worked in Castelvecchi’s. My sister organised for the both of us to go out on a date to the old Regal Cinema in Paisley.”

Alfredo added: “There have certainly been several generations of Paisley Buddies who have come to Castelvecci’s over the years.”

The show is part of Renfrewshire Leisure’s Out of Place Festival held in various venues in Paisley. Already performances have taken place in Paisley Arts Centre Café and in POP, the new pop-up exhibitions and events space, in the former Post Office in the Piazza shopping centre.

A drop-in event, called The Choraphone, will be at POP from 12pm to 4pm on Tuesday and Wednesday May 28 and 29. It’s described as a “mesmerising interactive music and projection installation - a controllable virtual vocal ensemble”.

Using simple controllers, participants can play the choir, creating vocal harmony melody and rhythm.

Based around a verse from The Braes of Balquhidder, by Paisley poet Robert Tannahill, the piece combines projection and sound in a unique immersive experience.
