Moira Wairama will be hosting this months’ Wellington Storytellers’ Café with guest tellers Judy Frost-Evans and Linda.

Judy Frost-Evans lives by the sea in Pukerua Bay where she inhales the salt laden breezes, listens to the sounds of the sea, is inpsired by the graceful flight of the sea birds riding on the up draughts and keeps a lookout for whales in the Kapiti Channel. She will bring us tales from the Belly of the Whale.

Linda writes regularly on controversial social issues for adults and young people and as a storyteller, generally tells World stories, myths and legends. At this month’s Storytellers’ Café, she’ll be combining the two, in tales that entertain, startle and surprise.
