The towns Sugar Sheds, pictured, are to be the stage for an ambitious performance called White Gold.

It is part of the Glasgow 2014 cultural programme and will take place from 4 to 7 June.

A 200-volunteer cast will join a team of professional artists and performers to tell the untold stories of the people of Inverclyde, through drama, movement, music and breathtaking aerial performance.

Paul Bristow, from Inverclyde Community Development Trust, has been involved with the project behind the scenes, sourcing stories and memories from locals.

He said: Weve been amazed by the power of the stories and the generosity of those who have given them.

Most people, perhaps because we were strangers, were only too happy to share and there were some really sad and beautiful stories in there.
