Subject: RE: 51st Sidmouth festival
And apart from the dancers, singers and musicians, the storytellers will be back. We are looking for a suitable venue to hold sessions in for informal storytelling and already 2 well known storytellers have offered their services to do their 3/4 hour one person epics, one on the seal cycle of stories and one doing the story of Joan Wytte, the Fighting Fairy Woman of Bodmin who ended up as an exhibit in the Boscastle Witchcraft Museum. Both very rare opportunities to witness storytelling on this scale - the old bardic tradition. So, any storytellers out there who want to get involved - pm me.
