Experience a pub tour like no other, a theatrical journey across 300 years of Scotland's great writing, in a witty and entertaining piece of theatre, following the footsteps of writers, from Burns and Scott, to Spark and Welsh.
THE ORIGINAL LITERARY PUB TOUR
Join the intrepid duo, Clart (as in muck!) and our clean-hankied intellectual McBrain, who will lead you on a brilliant and witty dramatic romp through the wynds, courtyards and pubs of Edinburgh's Old and New Town.
Experience a true living sense of Edinburgh's great literary history, with its streets and courtyards full of legend and poetry. Learn and laugh while you walk in and out of pubs, from Grassmarket to Rose Street, across Lawnmarket and Royal Mile.
If you thought that the great Robert Burns, Sir Walter Scott and the like spent their evenings in the posh drawing rooms of Edinburgh high society, think again!
Drinking... perhaps
Thinking... maybe
Entertainment... guaranteed!
