In 2018 Julie Fowlis and Duncan Chisholm created a new work entitled An Treas Suaile (The Third Wave) which brought audiences closer to a devastating story. The production was part of 14-18 NOW, the UK’s five-year arts programme marking the centenary of the First World War. The work was originally co-commissioned with An Lanntair to mark 100 years since the Iolaire disaster. An Treas Suaile gives a powerful insight into the events leading up to the tragedy, together with incredible stories of survival, community and faith.
