Grown ups need stories too! Let your imagination run wild with some of the old tales of land, sea and sky. Expect grumpy giants, malevolent mermaids and sassy sea-monsters, all drawn from the rich heritage of stories passed down to us through the centuries.

Storytelling is an age-old tradition. Traditional stories passed down through the generations include folk tales, fairy tales, myths, epics and stories of how it all began. Part of the craft of good storytelling is to really get into the heart of a story, honour the community and the place it has come from, and bring it alive in ways that directly connect with the people listening in the here and now.

We all need magic and inspiration, desperately so in these difficult times, and many traditional stories lie at the roots of our beliefs and our journeys. Whether you are two years old or a hundred and two, there’s something heartening about sharing in a good tale. Stories can offer a flash of inspiration, a whole load of belly-laughs, a hero’s journey or a new way of looking at life.

Join Lisa Schneidau for a weekend of folktales from Britain and Ireland for all ages!
