Yes it's cold and yes it's dark but it's always worth the adventure. We're still smiling with our success at the Newport Folk Festival. We were invited to 'show our chops' and we certainly did that. It was an evening of moving, hilarious and thought-provoking storytelling. Many thanks to all who responded to the Expression of Interest and tossed their hats into the ring.
This Friday the heater will be on, there will be tea and cake and fine company.
Come share a tale, support the tellers and let's dream of new adventures.
WHAT IS FABLED NIGHTS
Fabled Nights in Newport is an open-hearted space for people who
want to learn to craft true tales, traditional stories, tall tales and
yarns; heart to heart and without notes. We welcome beginners and
experienced folks. So come and strut your stuff, share what you know,
try out a new story or tell a tale for the first time.
There's room for around 10 storytellers and we ask that stories be no longer than 10 minutes, give or take. We ask that stories be said not read.
We reserve 2 - 15 minute places for people who want to try out longer stories.
Let kind hearts and commonsense prevail: racist and homophobic stories hurt people so please don't bring them to Fabled Nights.
