Simon Heywood: Strange Majesty
Come along to our first Storytelling Café of the new season. Fabulous food and fun at the Kitchen Garden Café. Pomp, pageantry and pathos from acclaimed storytelling Simon Heywood, in his “Strange Majesty” set. Legends of Vortigern and the forgotten kings of Britain…
... they rode there, helmed
With a strange majesty that the heathen horde
Remembered after all were overwhelmed ...
The famous tales of Arthur are only one small part of a long cycle of legends of the kings of ancient Britain: tales of heroes and villains, courage and cowardice, glory and crime, and triumph, tragedy and treason, stretching down generations, coming to a head in a final war between the Britons and the seaborne Saxon invaders. Award-winning writer and storyteller Simon Heywood combines music, song and storytelling to bring new life to a forgotten treasure trove of tales, remembering the strange majesty of the kings of Albion, from Brutus to Belin, Locrin to Lear, Arthur, Merlin and Vortigern.
