Humans have been telling each other stories since they could talk and there are as many styles of performance as there are storytellers.

Performance Storytelling is part theatre, part intimate fireside chat. The Storyteller brings their imagination to stories, myths, folk tales - animating and elaborating, adding characterisation and humour, freshening them, making them live. Performance Storytelling contains spontaneity and an element of improvisation - each show and each audience will all draw out a different performance.

The storyteller is narrator, director and actor all in one - and as such can make direct contact with the audience so that we are all connected in the story.

What to expect:

I adapt my style according to the audience and the setting: a theatre, marking a special celebration, a wedding or christening, a camp fire, a festival - adults or children, open air or indoors.

I love working with musicians and sound scapes and interweaving the audience into the fabric of the stories.

My shows range from 60-90 minute-long performances with musicians in a theatre, to a 5-20 minute story to wind up an event.
