Live performance of sparkling new stories in ravishing countryside near Bath

We&#x27;re going back to the Farm! What could be more summertime than sitting out under the stars sipping a glass of bubbly and listening to some stories?After last year&#x27;s gorgeous story evening at the farm, Word In Your Ear is delighted to present a brand new evening of stories on the theme of ROOTS in a beautiful secret setting a few miles north of Bath. So pack a picnic, put those beers in a cooler, sling a camping chair over your shoulder and join us for an evening of sparkling wit and joyous storytelling. And you can bring your friends along too! We are so lucky to have been invited back to a local farm in one of the Cotswolds&#x27; most glorious valleys. This farm is not open to the public, so it is a perfect opportunity to experience the peace and tranquillity of this gorgeous rural setting. Last year&#x27;s tempremental weather meant we told stories on a Landrover stage in a large open stable - with the horses whinnying their appreciation! It was a unique setting and our audience loved it. We hope to be outside this year, but the stable awaits should the rainclouds gather!Stories start at 7.00pm. The site will be open for picnics and general chatter from 6.00pm.
