Poet Ken Cockburn presents, on and around the Royal Mile, 'an Edinburgh alive with literature' (BroadwayBaby.com). Stroll quiet historic closes, bustling contemporary streets and open green spaces, all to a soundtrack of poetry 'deftly and lovingly performed by Cockburn' (AYoungishPerspective.co.uk). If you're new to Edinburgh you'll see some key sights, and if you know the city you’ll experience it afresh by slowing down and listening to the words of poets writing across the centuries. 'Highly informative, thoughtful and a great way to discover bits of Edinburgh we’d never seen before' (Audience Review).
