An afternoon of live performances took place at the Roxbury Central Festival Fringe venue in Edinburgh this June. The event was created by Australian New Scot Jasmine Lindemann and was inspired by the contribution that the National Collective made to the 2014 independence campaign.

We then showcase the performances from the event.  Performers were:

Poet Myra Ross reads some of her poems on the theme of social justice and independence.

Author Cathy McSporran reads an excerpt from her novel Cold City in which she imagines two parallel but very different fates for Scotland

Glasgow based theatre group Action Theatre Scotland perform a scene from their play Alba, which has just finished a run at the Gilded Balloon as part of the Edinburgh Festival Fringe.

Glasgow Comedy Festival hit The Sad Girls Club give us a hilarious glimpse into one of their club meetings 

Photographer Richard Prow discusses his distinctive photographs from marches and events from his FB page Photies by Rick

Yes Stones and Yes Slates activists - and occasional podcast guests- Lynne Dougan and Neil Haston discuss the value of art as a non confrontational way to start independence conversations.

We are grateful to Jasmine and all the performers for sharing their work with us.
