Choose life, choose Leith Theatre for the 30th anniversary screening of Trainspotting on Friday.

What a buzz to see it on a huge screen with live commentary from Ewan McGregor, Irvine Welsh and other insiders. The hats were a nice touch!

Trainspotting came home at the historic @LeithTheatre.

The cast and crew celebrated the 30th anniversary of Danny Boyle’s iconic film for a unique event featuring live commentary and a club night.

📣 Leith Theatre has secured £5m from Edinburgh’s new Visitor Levy nearly 100 years after it was gifted to the people of Leith.

This investment brings us closer to opening as a permanent, year-round cultural venue.

Life-affirming night at gloriously reborn @LeithTheatre wi #RestlessNatives musical. Brilliant rework of 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 1980s film. Not sure every Anglo-Centric critic will get it, but rollicking ride thru many sides of 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 that left me yearning for a hero’s voice across the mountainside 👏
