THE STORYTELLERS
Let me introduce our wonderful group of regular storytellers. We came together online and have worked to create wonderful stories for you to hear.
ALASTAIR K DANIEL
Alastair K Daniel has been working as a professional storyteller for over 20 years, specialising in a conversational and improvisatory approach to folk stories and literary tales. He is also an active researcher and writes about storytelling - his blog can be found at www.storytent.co.uk
CLARE GOODALL
Clare Goodall specialises in telling tales a medieval pilgrim could have gathered on her travels - often in costume & historical settings, sometimes accompanying them to music. She is currently oscillating between living in London or near Oxford.
CHRIS RICHARDSON
A magical storyteller who likes a traditional epic, a good norse tale and blacksmiths.
BADEN PRINCE
A wicked storyteller who brings a new idea of story to storytelling. Teller of tales from the West Indies.
Hannah Brailsford
Hannah is a professional storyteller based in Southend on Sea, Essex who tells both traditional and modern tales to young and old alike. Driven by a passion to engage and inspire communities with oral storytelling, she draws on her acting background to take her audiences on playful and poignant journeys into folk, fairy, wonder tales and myths and legends from around the world. Described as, 'Captivating, compelling, high-energy and fun.', she provides storytelling for schools and families through her company Tiny Tales Storytellers and for adult audiences with Spinning Yarns Theatre.
James Canvin
James told his first tale at university as part of a seminar on Sumerian religion, and was subsequently delighted to find out about traditional storytelling many years later. He loves everything from epic myths to comic folktales, and has told at events and clubs across the country. He also helps run Surrey Storytellers.
JILL LAMEDE
As I live in the beautiful, magical birthplace of King Arthur, I am widely known as The Tintagel Storyteller.
The stories I tell are my own versions of folktales and legends from around the world.
Long, long ago, Tintagel was a port visited by ships from all over the Mediterranean and beyond. The stories that would have been heard here are the ones told by the sailors and merchants as they sat round the fire in the castle or the inns. These are the tales I love to tell.
MARIA CREDALI
The warmth and humour of Maria shine through the screen and she 'shares' her tales in the truest sense of the word. During lockdown Maria has told extensively at storytelling events and clubs across the country, and is one of the storytellers invited to tell online for The World Storytelling Café.
She has recently been commissioned by The Royal Shakespeare Company to create new stories based on the recollections of their costume department and will be at Marrakech International Storytelling Festival in February 2022.
