Wellington – a City Full of Tales

Wellington – a City Full of Tales

STORY & LAUGHTER BRINGS STORYTELLING SHOW BACK TO THE HEART OF WELLINGTON

Last Sunday of the month, The Scruffy Bunny Theatre, The Reading, 100 Courtenay Place, 4pm. Admission by donation


The Scruffy Bunny Theatre will host storytelling shows monthly starting from Sunday 25th February at 4pm.

Storytelling, so they say, is the reason people invented fire, so they could stay up late listening to the stories. And if you believe that, you’ll believe all of our tall tales and true! You’re just our kind of audience. It’ll be the perfect spot for entertainment for an hour or so for you on the last Sunday of the month.

Storytellers bring old tales to life with lively interpretations, and new tales to light, some tales come from the moment and some are finally revealed. All are crafted with care for your enjoyment. If you’re bored hearing those same old family stories over dinner again and again, come and hear some new tales. If those tales are so good they should be shared, here is the place to do it.

Each month there will be feature tellers and stories, as well as an opportunity to share tales yourself, or pick up some ideas to create them. Look out for our different themes. We will feature tellers old and new, and also hope to collar any national or international tellers passing through Wellington to share stories too.

Please be aware that whilst there is no age restriction, generally tales are told by adults for adults, so parental guidance may or may not be required. We hope to have at least one special event just for children during the year.

Produced by Caroline Welkin, a regular with The Storytellers Café over the years, and a stalwart of the comedy scene since most of the current comedians don’t know when, this show will bring all styles of story to this spoken word venue. Shorter stories may even reach wider audiences with our podcasting friend in the UK.
