Alice in Wonderland - AB Paterson Auditorium, The Byre Theatre Some of audience cackled insanely, becoming dizzily lost in the music, trippy dance routines, fantastic characters and psychedelic sets, and thats just the ones who hadn't taken drugs.

In the early days of the office, the Rector was chosen by the doctors, masters and students of the university to be the head of their society.
