Active Inquiry presents The Boundary
by Duncan Kidd

At the start of 1920, Leith and Edinburgh were separate places…

1920. The residents of a block of tenement flats on the border between Leith and Edinburgh go about their daily business on the backgreen; hanging out washing, filling the coal scuttle, queuing for the cludgie – and occasionally acting out news stories from the Leith Observer. Can they make sense of all the politics at play?

Marking a hundred (and two!) years since the Edinburgh Tramways and Extension Bill, The Boundary explores the amalgamation of Leith into Edinburgh in 1920. We are sorry if material and jokes about trams and referendums on independence have no relevance today…

Thursday 16th June 7pm (SOLD OUT)

    Over the course of 2024 Out of the Blue will continue to offer opportunities for artists and members of the community to learn, participate and earn income.

    We use the space we have developed in 6 buildings in Edinburgh for studios, workshops, classes, projects, exhibitions, social enterprises, events, clubs, music making, markets, a cafe and more.

    Our all year round activity helps create the culture of the city, supporting the local economy and having positive social impact for the thousands of individuals and organisations we work with.

    We would humbly accept a financial donation, however small, in support of our work.
