Shows
Fate, Faith & Fortune
Storytellers Hannah Moore and Fiona Eadie bring you an evening of wisdom and humour from the old tales.
Join them for a journey along the sometimes comic, sometimes dangerous, path between choice and chance, in this programme full of fools and sages, hurdles and hiccoughs, doom and destiny...
Dolls, Trolls and Iron Feet
West of the Moon bring you their three-woman journey into the wondertale world, taking listeners deep into magic and imagination, running with the White Bear King; questing for Finist the Radiant Falcon and surviving trial by fire in the chicken-footed hut of Baba Yaga.
Horses and Apples: Tales of the Trojan War
The story of the Trojan War is part of a great tapestry of Greek myths. Horses and Apples leads listeners on a journey through the tales that precede this infamous conflict, asking questions that still resonate today...
Which would you choose above all else: power, wisdom or love?
Once we've set ourselves to a course, when do we pass the point of no return?
And how much will we sacrifice in order to get what we want?
Step into the vivid mythic world of Greek gods and goddesses, princes and queens, prophecies, bloodshed, love, sex, revenge, magic, trickery, transformation, destiny and hope.
Please see the Judgement of Paris for a flavour of this show:

There are wonders and secrets hid deep in its heart,
Music to snatch your feet swift into dance,
And words to bewitch you given half a chance...
