‘Glorious storytelling and music … the stars, the moon and the lamp-posts leaned down to listen.’ Nell Phoenix, StoryNight at Torriano
Mr Rook’s Speak Easy Presents: The Bear’s Son: Tales of Hidden Bulgaria
A storytelling performance with music by A Spell in Time
Beyond nine green forests, in the borderlands between the wild and the civilised, lies a world of man-bears, deer-women and dog-headed people. Fate and fortune twist and turn as a wife runs wild, a hero searches for his true nature, and a girl falls under a dragon’s spell.
Interweaving storytelling, ritual and evocative music, A Spell In Time presents earth-stirring tales of transformation from the wild and wonderful heart of Bulgarian myth and folklore.
A Spell In Time is an acclaimed British-Bulgarian storytelling company that brings the power and magic of Bulgaria’s myths and folk tales to UK audiences for the first time. Performers are Moni Sheehan, storyteller and Ivor Davies, musician.
Mr Rook’s Speak Easy is a regular performance storytelling night for adults based at Rook Lane Chapel in the heart of Frome, Somerset.
Doors open 7pm for 7.30pm Start
