# Event Details - **Event Name**: Shouting in the Tunnel: Protest poetry & discussion with Ruth Aylett and fr - **Event Start and End Date**: Tue, 14 Apr, 2026 at 07:00 pm – Tue, 14 Apr, 2026 at 08:00 pm (+01:00) - **Event Description**: We mark the launch of Aylett's Shouting in the Tunnel - a collection of explicitly political poems - with readings & discussion.About this EventShouting in the Tunnel is a collection of explicitly political poems, penned by Ruth Aylett in the hopes of bringing us together, to express our anger at poverty and injustice, and to inspire us to action. It is a vivid commentary on today’s world, but throughout it carries a message of hope.To mark the launch of the book we're hosting an evening of readings and discussion inspired by the book and headlined by Ruth herself!These poems are offered to activists in the trade unions in their everyday struggle for better working conditions; to the anti-racist and anti-fascist movements; to the brave campaigners for action on climate change; to those who have put themselves on the line against the criminalising of Palestine Action; to the hundreds and thousands demonstrating and speaking out against the Gaza genocide; and to everyone struggling for a future free of the cruelty and oppression of capitalism.Ruth Aylett’s poems are a rallying cry wrapped in tenderness — the kind that reminds you that politics matters, that poetry matters, above all, that people matter. This is poetry that laments the brutality of the past and the present, but sings of the solidarity that will lead us into the future' -Josie Long, comedian, actor and broadcasterIn the spirit of solidarity that underpins this book, and all her work, this event will double as a fundraiser for Palestinian families in Gaza through Readers & Writers Against Genocide, and will feature readings from Edinburgh's Woman Life Freedom collective, in solidarity with women in Iran. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/edinburgh/shouting-in-the-tunnel-protest-poetry-and-discussion-with-ruth-aylett-and-fr/100001985410128139 - **Event Categories**: art, literary-art, theatre, comedy, entertainment, nonprofit - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket URL**: https://consumer.pxf.io/c/1339408/3151484/39691?partnerpropertyid=1191892&MediaPartnerPropertyId=1191892&svlink=14105511&level=1&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.eventbrite.com%2Fe%2Fshouting-in-the-tunnel-protest-poetry-discussion-with-ruth-aylett-and-fr-tickets-1985410128139 - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 0, max: 5.04, currency: GBP ## Event venue details - **city**: Edinburgh - **state**: SC - **country**: United Kingdom - **location**: Lighthouse - Edinburgh’s Radical Bookshop - **lat**: 55.9445833 - **long**: -3.1855200999999624 - **full address**: Lighthouse - Edinburgh’s Radical Bookshop, 43-45 West Nicolson Street, Edinburgh, United Kingdom ## Event Organizer details - **affiliate_id**: 10 - **organizer**: Lighthouse - Edinburgh's Radical Bookshop (https://allevents.in/org/lighthouse-edinburghs-radical-bookshop/23914904) ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: banner - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events7/banners/059fb2be342af35681f532915b7c2a9aeaf209e0782647e9862c072d3c38d1c9-rimg-w1200-h675-dcc0291c-gmir.jpg?v=1774125869 - **Alt text**: thumbnail - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events7/banners/f735dbfbff5d7173ff52f106af344d0bfc8018989cab37ae22108b22a4f684f4-rimg-w400-h400-dcc0291c-gmir.jpg?v=1774125869 ## FAQs - **Q**: When is the event happening?
