Do you think you know Edinburgh? What about the parts of its story it prefers to conceal? This theatrical poetry performance from Edinburgh's former Makar Hannah Lavery alongside fellow poets Jeda Pearl, Shasta Hanif Ali, Niall Moorjani, and Alycia Pirmohamed, illuminates the hidden history of the city, its institutions, and its people. Set to music by composer Niroshini Thambar, and featuring evocative images from photographer Kat Gollock, your understanding of Edinburgh will be changed forever by this special event. Originally commissioned by Push the Boat Out, with support from Edinburgh 900.
