The Story House and Garden: Words in Winter in Daylesford

Kissing the Blarney as it Flies 
with Storyteller Niki Na Meadhra
 
The Story House and Garden welcomes much loved Melbourne based storyteller Niki Na Meadhra to Daylesford with her show Kissing the Blarney. 
 
It is is a weave of tales about Niki’s origins; Irish immigrant ancestors who settled in and around Daylesford and Yandoit. These stories are entwined with the legends and myths collected on her 2015 storytelling tour of Ireland. Niki pays homage to the Celtic Warrior Women with snippets from her show Fair and Furious.

‘... storytelling taken to the next level - Art, a melding of fine acting and fine story-telling. She is an experienced actor, who is passionate about her Irish heritage, and relishes its extravagance, comedy and craftiness.‘                                                                          Frances Devlin-Glass The Celtic Club
