Event information

We’re delighted to welcome Michael Harvey, Welsh storyteller and true wizard of the magic of words. After a day leading a storytelling workshop, (just two places remaining at the time of writing) he performs “Uncaged”.
Michael writes, “Sometime in 1871 the great Breton folktale collector François-Marie Luzel sat down in front of a man called Guillaume Garandel in a village called Plouaret, ready to add another story to his bulging collection of traditional tales. Imagine his surprise when the story unravelled in a twisted tale of cross-dressing, attempted seduction and a huge hairy man in a story that defies categories and leaps, hairy and smelly, out of the collective imagination, demanding  to be heard.”

The result is “Uncaged, a Story from the Wild.”
Here’s a review from its performance at London’s CrickCrack Club:
“...in that hour, it felt as though we travelled leagues, into a different and strange world...{Michael} knows how to be theatrical, and in parts you could sense the poetry bursting out. But his way was chattier, jokier. And as he wove us a tale of royalty and wildness, he couldn’t stop the humour bubbling to the surface”… “I spent the night transfixed.”

Come and be transfixed with us!

All the usual attractions apply, the friendly company and the superb cakes all in a lovely venue.
